In this engaging episode, DMU's newest National Teaching Fellow, Julia Reeve discusses her "long and winding road" to National Teaching Fellowship. Julia provides some fascinating insights into how applying for a National Teaching Fellowship stimulated intense reflection that caused her to learn things about herself as a teacher that she previously was not aware of. Julia also discusses the importance of finding a mentor that not only knows about the technical aspects of writing a successful NTFS application, but can also be a shoulder to cry on as well as a personal cheerleader, supporting the application process effectively on those dark days when doubt creeps in. This is a must listen for anyone interested in one day becoming a National Teaching Fellow, as well as anyone that has an interest in learning and teaching.
