No Change

I have been a teacher for 35 years now. Yes, it’s been a career of ups and downs, a source of frustration and exhaustion at times, a source of pleasure and fascination at others. Yes, it’s underpaid for the amount of effort and mental energy, something it has in common with pretty much any other job outside of the boardroom, but the amount of satisfaction you get from the successes of students past and present is amazing. I could never imagine doing anything else and I couldn’t be better suited to any job.
