Lessons My Hair Stylist and Other Professionals Have Taught Me That Teachers Can Use
Phillip Ward
Journal of Physical Education, Recreation & Dance, v95 n8 p43-47 2024
All professionals face similar problems based on the nature of their work. For example, teachers, hair stylists, chefs, and physicians might appear to have nothing in common, but they must all get better at completing the tasks they are performing. They must all communicate effectively with others and encounter challenges in their work that they must adapt to. Though the contexts are different, teachers can learn a lot from other professionals about how to address the challenges and tasks of their work. This article presents lessons the author has learned from professionals he has interacted with or observed, and draws connections from the work of other professionals to the work of teaching. These lessons can help make teachers better teachers by lessening their workloads, improving their knowledge and effectiveness, and strengthening their efforts to support students.
