Being A Teacher = Amazing: Vaiva Vysniauskaite, Julija Ladygiene, Vytautas Miezis at TEDxVilnius

Vaiva loves watching the change in others -- it's quite the main reason she joined the program "Renkuosi mokyti!" (eng. Let's Teach!) and became a teacher in 2011. "These two years of teaching were like climbing mountains -- it's amazing how intensively we can grow, both teachers and students! And that we can witness changes every day -- it's incredible how much children can grow and accomplish if we give them challenges, support, direction. They can climb amazingly high mountains if we talk, listen to them and believe in them." More info on www.tedxvilnius.com.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
