What is a teacher?
In learning you will teach, and in teaching you will learn.
In large part, we are teachers precisely because we remember what it was like to be a student.
Someone inspired us.
Someone influenced us.
Or someone hurt us.
We have channeled that joy or pain into our own unique philosophies on life and learning. We are always looking for an opportunity to share them, with each other, our students, parents, or in our communities.
That is why teaching is not a profession, but rather it is a gift.
It is the questions we cannot answer that teach us the most.
They teach us how to think.
It does not matter what you teach, but how you inspire your students to give their best in order to discover what they already know.
