As Grand Snider's most excellent cartoon reveals, finding your voice requires many attempts, some successful, some not so much. Like the cartoon suggests, we educators find our voices in the voices of others: great thinkers, administrators, colleagues, favourite authors, scientists, engineers, mathematicians, our own favourite teachers and so on, but we must always remember that it is by listening to our students that we will find many of the answers we're seeking to empower ourselves.
