"""Shannon Leddy and Lorrie Miller weave a beautiful metaphorical tapestry of Slow and Indigenous ways of knowing and being that simultaneously honours each framework's distinct features and identifies complementary principles, teachings, and pedagogies to create exciting new educational possibilities. In this era of truth and reconciliation, holistic pedagogies are needed to offer hope, love, care, and deep ways of feeling, being, knowing, and doing, which this book offers, and so much more."" - Jo-ann Archibald, Professor Emeritus of Educational Studies, University of British Columbia ""Teaching Where You Are is a must-read for educators and preservice teachers who are dedicated to responsibly providing for Indigenous ways and perspectives in their professional practice. With recognition of the discomfort educators might feel approaching Indigeneity in their work, Leddy and Miller acknowledge and help us, as settlers, to activate the process of unpacking and unlearning colonizing perspectives. This book offers a pathway of knowledge for teachers to develop the self and nurture authentic, human approaches to walking alongside Indigenous wisdom and cross-cultural understanding in their classrooms."" - Sheryl Smith-Gilman, Associate Dean of Academics, Faculty of Education, McGill University"
