WMWP Keynote Anne Marie Osheyak: We Are Not JUST Teachers

Anne Marie Osheyak was our keynote speaker at last weekend’s Western Massachusetts Writing Project Best Practices conference. Anne Marie is the 2014 Massachusetts Teacher of the Year and an advocate of social justice in education, as well as a powerful educator with strong views on the profession of teaching.

This video collects some of the elements of her keynote address, which was met with a standing ovation from the conference as she reminded us to “reclaim our voices” as teachers in this age of data points and assessments, and that none of us are “just teachers.”

We ARE teachers.

Peace (in the talk),
Kevin
