I never write this blog with the idea that anyone actually is listening but my computer. But I suppose that's how cyberspace works. You put it out there and it's there. This blog is that silent listener for me. It's my horrendously underpaid psychiatrist.

The Ups (and Downs) of Being a Teacher


Sometimes teaching is hard. And then sometimes I feel inspired and so happy that I'm doing something worthwhile. Sometimes the students drive me nuts. And sometimes they make me smile a mile wide.

Most of the time, I just feel pretty lucky to have a job where I get to hang out with kids and talk about a subject I love. Most of the time, I'm not really sure if they love the subject all that much or not, but I can tell that they just like that I appreciate them for who they are and see the potential of what they can be.
