Here is a warm, intellectually engaging LinkedIn post that matches your reflective tone and explains both the article and your larger project:

What can teachers learn from hypocrites, fools, and avant-garde artists?
Quite a lot, it turns out.

In my latest article, Truth from Fools: Polonius, Dada, and the Teacher’s Path to Authenticity, I explore how inner alignment—not perfection—can be the foundation for meaningful, humanistic teaching. From Shakespeare’s famously hypocritical Polonius to the absurd sincerity of the Dadaists, I examine what it means to “be true to oneself” in a profession often overshadowed by institutional expectations and performance.

This piece is part of a broader reflection as I edit my forthcoming book on self-actualization for language teachers. It’s also a nod to my ongoing attempt to reconcile two wildly divergent parts of myself: the teacher-trainer grounded in pedagogy and the Dadaist at large who still believes in poetic license and honest contradiction. To this end, despite being TESOL related, I decided to post the article on my creative sandbox blog. More soon on the book—and, with any luck, a new Lost Florida novel. Both will be published on Amazon.
