@dragonslayer109 Sadly, one poor teacher is remembered far longer than a great one...

Interestingly, teachers who love their work, would rather year-round schooling with two-weeks off every 'season', instead of the long, drawn-out time during summer when children forget much of what they learned the previous year.

You might be surprised to know that the first 6-9 weeks of the new school year is purely re-teachings of the previous school year.

Teaching is a gift. Those who aren’t really cut out for it, end up being the person in the last pix. Heavens forbid, they hide this ‘quiet’ addiction before getting hired. The children are the ones who suffer.

However, those who are genuine could never tire of the joy the profession brings. They’re the ones who would work for free if they had to.

Peace.
