Gentle Teaching Stories: “It has such a unique meaning and purpose in everyone’s life.”

Gentle Teaching Stories:

“It shines a light on the needs and emotions of others to ensure they feel safe.”

November 11, 2021/inBlog, Gentle Teaching, Stories

Gentle Teaching has genuinely transformed the person I am today, but most importantly, the person I am continuously working to become. I have been with COR over a year now and am constantly reminded in my day to day life the positive impacts Gentle Teaching has had on my life. It has not only showed me a fundamentally different way of approaching life here at COR, but it has allowed me to approach my everyday life differently.

Through my training, through the conversations, within my education, and through my supportive role here at COR I have been exposed to the importance of empathy. Gentle Teaching has indisputably opened my eyes to the ability to understand why individual people react in the ways they do, and to have the skills to foster relationships that can work collaboratively with people to become happier and healthier.

“The Gentle Teaching philosophy has such a unique meaning and purpose in everyone’s life, and I believe that is the pure beauty in it.”

For me, I have grasped raising Gentle Teaching as a way of living, not only for myself but so that I can positively make my mark on each person I encounter. Gentle Teaching has embedded in me the importance to take on every day with the hopes of lifting others up through collaboratively and patiently working together.

Applying Gentle Teaching to my everyday life has been a transformation I could have never imagined when I began here at COR. I have learned to value each person for who they are genuinely, but more importantly, to live a life of empowering each other. I have always been a team-oriented person. With the addition of this philosophy, they want for the empowerment of everyone around me, they strive to build everyone’s confidence with their own identity, and their meaning is amplified.

“I have learned from gentle teaching that gentleness is not something you learn and only use at your place of work. It is a way of life that you carry with you at home, at school, and in public.”

“When I think about a student’s time with us, whether short or long, I think about a bridge. This bridge that you build is a gateway to your future. But one of my favorite things that just organically seems to happen is that you invite us to come along with you on your journey across that bridge. Sometimes you stay with us through employment, but sometimes you become Doctors, or you build your own yoga studios. By inviting us across this bridge with you, you’re helping open up our world and make the spaces we frequent a little safer and a little brighter. We are now known and seen by you! You share in our stories and we in yours.”

Read Ben’s speech (link in bio for full speech) from when he accepted the “Outstanding Fieldwork Agency Award” on behalf of COR last week at the @ur_khsexperientiallearning Alumni and Awards Dinner!
