Tarryn McLaren

Rediscover the Heart of Teaching
A One-Day Workshop in Johannesburg
Teaching is more than a profession – it is a calling. In the midst of daily demands, it's easy to forget why we chose this noble path. This one-day retreat invites you to pause, reflect, and reconnect with your purpose. Join fellow educators for a powerful day of self-discovery, where we will explore the deep inner questions that lie at the core of meaningful teaching.
Knowing your students and mastering your subject matter are essential. But knowing yourself : what motivates you vs. depletes you, your strengths, your inner compass are equally vital. This one day workshop, in the heart of Johannesburg, is designed to guide you inward, helping you rediscover the passion and clarity that inspired your journey into education.
With courage, we:
-
Persevere through adversity
-
Think and act with independence
-
Engage openly and confidently with diverse people and ideas
-
Rise to the challenge of the complex and the unfamiliar
These qualities not only shape our teaching, they sustain it. This retreat offers the space to cultivate that courage, through self-reflection and shared experience.
What you'll gain:
-
Renewed insight into your teaching identity
-
Tools for sustaining personal and professional well-being
-
A supportive space to reflect, connect, and be inspired
Don’t miss this opportunity to return to the why behind your work — and leave feeling grounded, revitalised, and empowered.
Reignite your passion.
Reconnect with your purpose.
Rediscover the teacher within.
