Abstract

Teaching offers personal and professional challenges. With these challenges come vulnerable moments and times that one must step outside one’s comfort zone. This may be the only way to grow and to live an authentic life. Personal teaching experiences are offered and five tips are shared to help new instructors enjoy and survive the classroom. The tips are intended to help prepare the next generation of social work professors.
