I am a teacher by profession and teaching is my passion as well. A few minutes ago i was marking the papers that i took today from my students. Your blog's first paragraph is totally the depiction of Teaching Community all over the world. Like you said,
Our accomplishments are directly tied with those of our students.
This is more than true, teaching is not a profession rather it is prayer. We being teachers are trying our level best to promote the light of knowledge to kill the ignorance from society to make this wold a beautiful place to live.
More strength and power to you My Great Friend @hanshotfirst you're inspiring the lives of those who have to take the responsibility of the world. Lets together produce the peaceful leaders of the future My Friend :)
My support is always with you in this awesome journey in fact a spiritual journey <3
Stay Blessed, Steem On!
