I’m taking on a challenge. I’m learning 21 people’s names in 21 days. Actually, I'm learning more than their just their names. These are not random people off the street, these are people in my world but I've never met them. I had a desire to know these people even before I photographed them and learned their names. After I photographed each person, I interviewed them about leadership, their view on people and their one word to the world. I chose to focus on leadership because these 21 people have led me in one way or another. Now, I know their names.

11 Knights At The Art Tables

Her students know her as "Shep." I had the opportunity to observe Shep's skills of teaching high school art classes today. Rather than doing my normal interview questions, I did something different today - I asked Shep's students what makes a good teacher. Most of them answered loudly, which was on purpose so Shep could hear...to tell you the truth, I think their answers were all about her. This is what they had to say:
A GOOD TEACHER NEEDS TO
Be funny, not too serious
Listen
Be sarcastic
Give rewards for hard work
Be understanding, have mercy
Be Friendly and comfortable
Have no favorites
Trust
Willing to cooperate and teach at students pace
Be a wise mouth
Be strict and make a reputation



Shep's advice to me

Be Consistant
