About

Welcome to my blog! My name is Mani Wangdi, and I am an educator with a passion for teaching and inspiring students. This blog is a space for me to share my thoughts, experiences, and reflections on the teaching profession, and the impact it has on students and the society.

I'll be sharing my personal journey as an educator, the challenges and rewards I have experienced, and the valuable lessons I have learned along the way. I'll also be writing about various aspects of teaching such as classroom management, curriculum design, assessment, and the use of technology in education. In addition, I'll be highlighting the latest educational trends, research, and best practices to help you stay up-to-date in the field.

My goal is to provide a space where educators can find inspiration, practical strategies, and support. I'll be sharing my own experiences as a teacher and it will give you a glimpse into the day-to-day life of an educator and how it shapes my understanding of education. I also want to create a community of like-minded individuals who are passionate about teaching and want to make a difference in the lives of their students.

I believe that the work we do as educators is one of the most rewarding, yet challenging professions there is. The work we do shapes the future and that is why it is important to share our experiences and learn from each other. Thank you for visiting my blog and I hope you find it a valuable resource. Feel free to reach out, connect and collaborate with me, I would love to hear your thoughts and experiences on teaching.

I also manage a birding blog. It is accessible HERE.

In 2014, during a speech to teacher trainees in Bhutan, His Majesty said, "You cannot give what you do not have", meaning that they should lead by example.  His Majesty’s message was clear – if you wish to teach something, then you must first possess it yourself.
