My mother, my mentor
pp. 85-94
Abstract
I currently teach clothing, nutrition, health, and hygiene at a university of technology where I have been working for 19 years. In this chapter, I demonstrate how I have come to understand my mother's educational influence on me as a university educator. I draw on my ongoing doctoral research into my lived experience of becoming an educator at a university of technology, as well as my master's thesis (Makhanya, 2012), which investigated whether I was living my values in my educational practice (Whitehead, 1989).
