Avoid Teacher Burnout by Reigniting Your Passion for Teaching

Has your teaching spark burned out? Well, I recently found 10 different ways to avoid teacher burnout on Twitter.

I watch social media closely and it's my job to share some of the hot topics on Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, and other outlets that teachers, principals, students, and parents are contributing.
