@aewallace8Chats In hard conversations I value being open minded. I hope that I can become less judge-mental and that the person I’m talking to exhibits the same values as me. #EDLD517EdChat

@aewallace8Chats I move towards a problem to try to solve it. I can't stand altercations. I have learned that sometimes the other person needs space to process before having a conversation. I am still a work in progress because I hate confrontation and will do anything to avoid it! #EDLD517EdChat

@aewallace8Chats A7: I value honesty so in tough conversations I want others to be honest and open. By doing that I feel like I also become more open to sharing my thoughts and feelings and can be more empathic and real with the person. #EDLD517EdChat

@aewallace8Chats I’ve always been a curious person, so when I try and lean into a conversation I find myself asking “why?” a lot. This helps me stay focused on them and allows them to tell me more. #EDLD517EdChat

@aewallace8Chats “Can you help me understand, I hadn’t thought about it that way before.” I think it’s important to recognize everyone has perspectives. I may not agree in the end, but at least I hear your point of view and maybe I’ll be enlightened and have a mind shift. #edld517edchat

@aewallace8Chats A7: I value comfortability and acceptance. Something that keeps my going in those tough conversations is that sometimes people are setting boundaries to keep themselves comfortable. We all do it and need to do it to keep things sane. #EDLD517edchat

@aewallace8Chats A5: Moving towards. I love challenges and I know they make me better. I wouldn’t be the person I am today without moving forward. Sometimes I take on too many challenges though and become overwhelmed 😮‍💨 #EDLD517EdChat

@aewallace8Chats A6: “Tell me why this doesn’t work for you.” I am constantly checking in with my students about what is “working”. I hope that is communicates that I want them to be comfortable and that it’s not a “one shoe fits all”. #EDLD517edchat

@aewallace8Chats Q6: I often find myself saying “So this is what you mean” then restating whatever someone has said in my terms to make sure I understand them clearly. #EDLD517EdChat

@aewallace8Chats A6: I believe my rumble starter is walk me through that. I like to break things down in steps and analyzing each piece. With this starter I feel that would help me empathize more with the speaker. #EDLD517EdChat

@aewallace8Chats A5: 100000% moving away. Avoidance is one of my downfalls. It’s actually a big thing I’ve been talking to with my therapist. God love that woman. #EDLD517edchat

@aewallace8Chats A4: Trying to over relate to something when you truly can’t instead of just accepting that you don’t have the same experience and acknowledging that that is okay. #EDLD517EdChat

@aewallace8Chats Q4: I think an empathy miss I have been through is telling a student “I totally get it” when they just vented to me about a trauma they went through, then catching myself cause I have no idea what that trauma is like. #EDLD517EdChat

@aewallace8Chats Frustration- Already I have seen so many teachers crying or on the verge of it because of the demands placed on them. Not only are the students coming out of quarantine but we are too. Frustrated teachers feel like the pandemic didn’t change education at all #EDLD517EdChat

@aewallace8Chats I don’t always need a solution or an answer when I’m sharing something personal. I often just need someone to hear me, and know I’m struggling, and say they sympathize with me. #EDLD517EdChat

@aewallace8Chats This one is tough for me because I rarely show emotions around people, however when I do need empathy I prefer to be hugged and consoled. It is rare though for me! #EDLD517EdChat

@aewallace8Chats A2: I am a huge eye contact person. It’s something others have noticed about me. Eye contact just lets me know I’m being listened to and when I’m being vulnerable, that’s what I want. #EDLD517edchat
