This episode on teacher self-disclosure was truly eye-opening. It made me reflect on how powerful it can be when educators share parts of their own stories — not to overshare, but to create trust, connection, and a more human classroom. I believe this kind of authenticity plays a key role in student motivation and engagement. Thank you for such a thoughtful and insightful discussion!
