    That’s NOT Me!

    14 Feb 2020 /

    To many good and great things in life, I tend to say, “That’s not me!” I don’t go to manicure salons. That’s not me. I don’t have girls nights out. That’s not me. I don’t wear red lipstick. I don’t go to school social gatherings. No Dr. Seuss-themed posters in my classroom. No yoga studios. No housewives of Beverly Hills. That’s not me! “That’s not me!” has become quite convenient to eliminate things I have to participate in, places to go to, people to meet. I’ve been living 30 min from New York for more than ten years, and I’ve never been to a Broadway show. While many times it…

    How to fight impostor syndrome.

    24 Apr 2018 /

    In this post, I am going to share four tips about how to fight impostor syndrome. Most commonly impostor syndrome is defined as a psychosomatic (syn.: psychological, stress-related, irrational)  pattern in which people doubt their accomplishments and have persistent, often internalized fear of being exposed as a “fraud.” I hope these tips will help you learn something more about you and the journey you might have ahead of you. In my second year in a public school system in the US, I  understood one critical thing: all the teachers, whether you are a beginner or a spiced, experienced one,  – all of us can relate in one way or another.…
