In keeping with the career college relevance,I find that one of the single biggest motivators is the not hold back your passion of the subject and letting the students know it's safe to do so too. Most students are attending school with goals&desires, but over time--and with life's anxieties never stopping--students and instructors can get in a rut. Fanning the flames of why they first wanted to attend the school has helped the students, but also comes full circle to keep me motivated. Even when I feel tired, I'll try to let my passion for what I am teaching--and what they are learning--show.My students fire me up and that makes me want to do better. Everybody benefits.
