As a fellow teacher, I only wish I am half as good as she was! Teaching is so much more than content. We are social workers, counselors, psychiatrists, coaches, parents, uncles/aunts. This is the part of the job the public does not see; they see test scores and graduation rates. If all of my students were well adjusted, loved, fed, clothed, disciplined at home etc., our jobs would be a cake walk. A demanding job, indeed.
