A flash of clarity. An “aha” moment. A suddenly illuminated path. At Envision, we like to refer to these moments when your passion becomes clear as your
“light switch moment.”
As educators, you may have experienced this for yourself before, or maybe even multiple times in your career as you have witnessed the spark in your
students. We are firm believers in the light switch moment and find joy in helping students find theirs through educational and life-changing experiences.
Envision CEO Duncan Young said it best: “
Like every parent, I want to see my child show true passion for something, and to see the spark and love of learning in her eye. Like every parent, I
am proud and excited when I see that, and concerned when I don’t. I believe that in most kids, that spark is ever-present, even if it is hiding beneath
the surface and needs some encouragement to come out.”
Have you ever felt the switch flip? We want to hear about your light switch moments and how those moments have affected you. So tell us…

- Were there any specific areas you focused on to make your path clear?
- What keeps the bulb burning? In other words, what drives you to continue teaching?
- How do you feel when your students “get it?”
No matter how big or small your light switch moment was, it led you to make a difference in your student’s lives. Tell us your story in the comments below
