The pleasures of teaching
Of course, there is more to the importance of teaching than this. Take the
"young people" mentioned above, for example. They might be six years old in
one class and sixteen or older in another. They might be wealthy, impoverished,
or in the middle. Any ethnicity could be represented among them. English or
another language may be their first language. The options are endless. But
regardless of the specific pupils, they will all have human potential—talents and
personal attributes that may not yet be fully developed—that can benefit society
as leaders, professionals, or supporters of others. A teacher's role—indeed, their
privilege—is to assist certain "young people" in reaching their full potential.

"It is not what I had anticipated," he stated. "English is a second language for
five of my children. That was unexpected. Two, possibly three, of my students
have reading problems, and one of them has a part-time assistant. I have learned
more about computer use than I ever imagined. Many curricular materials are
now available online, and computers assist students who need extra practice or
who finish assignments early. I am spending more time testing and screening
children than I anticipated, which takes time away from teaching. It is not all
surprises, though. I thought I would be able to "light a fire" beneath children's
eyes regarding reading. And with some kids, at least occasionally, that has
happened! You may accomplish this as a teacher by creating the foundation for
lifelong learning. Naturally, you will not teach a single student for the rest of
your life, but you will frequently work with them long enough to impart an
important lesson: there is a lot to learn in life—more than any one instructor or
school could ever impart in a lifetime. The abilities could be anything from
sports to music to painting; the knowledge could be about science, arithmetic, or
learning to read. The vastness of whatever you teach can inspire surprise,
excitement, and inquiry. It may provide as justification for optimism for both
your students and life in general. Even while learning frequently concentrates
on urgent, short-term issues, when correctly understood, learning is an ongoing
process. One advantage that not everyone in society shares as a teacher is the
justification to guide students beyond what they can learn from you, in addition
to imparting important knowledge and skills. Of course, there is more to the

school could ever impart in a lifetime. The abilities could be anything from
sports to music to painting; the knowledge could be about science, arithmetic, or
learning to read. The vastness of whatever you teach can inspire surprise,
excitement, and inquiry. It may provide as justification for optimism for both
your students and life in general. Even while learning frequently concentrates
on urgent, short-term issues, when correctly understood, learning is an ongoing
process. One advantage that not everyone in society shares as a teacher is the
justification to guide students beyond what they can learn from you, in addition
to imparting important knowledge and skills.
Of course, there is more to the importance of teaching than this. Take the
"young people" mentioned above, for example. They might be six years old in
one class and sixteen or older in another. They might be wealthy, impoverished,
or in the middle. Any ethnicity could be represented among them. English or
another language may be their first language. The options are endless. But
regardless of the specific pupils, they will all have human potential—talents and
personal attributes that may not yet be fully developed—that can benefit society
as leaders, professionals, or supporters of others. A teacher's role—indeed, their
privilege—is to assist certain "young people" in reaching their full potential.

more about computer use than I ever imagined. Many curricular materials are
now available online, and computers assist students who need extra practice or
who finish assignments early. I am spending more time testing and screening
children than I anticipated, which takes time away from teaching. It is not all
surprises, though. I thought I would be able to "light a fire" beneath children's
eyes regarding reading. And with some kids, at least occasionally, that has
happened! You may accomplish this as a teacher by creating the foundation for
lifelong learning. Naturally, you will not teach a single student for the rest of
your life, but you will frequently work with them long enough to impart an
important lesson: there is a lot to learn in life—more than any one instructor or
school could ever impart in a lifetime. The abilities could be anything from
sports to music to painting; the knowledge could be about science, arithmetic, or
learning to read. The vastness of whatever you teach can inspire surprise,
excitement, and inquiry. It may provide as justification for optimism for both
your students and life in general. Even while learning frequently concentrates
on urgent, short-term issues, when correctly understood, learning is an ongoing
process. One advantage that not everyone in society shares as a teacher is the
justification to guide students beyond what they can learn from you, in addition
to imparting important knowledge and skills.
Of course, there is more to the importance of teaching than this. Take the
"young people" mentioned above, for example. They might be six years old in
one class and sixteen or older in another. They might be wealthy, impoverished,
or in the middle. Any ethnicity could be represented among them. English or
another language may be their first language. The options are endless. But
regardless of the specific pupils, they will all have human potential—talents and
personal attributes that may not yet be fully developed—that can benefit society
as leaders, professionals, or supporters of others. A teacher's role—indeed, their
privilege—is to assist certain "young people" in reaching their full potential.

lifelong learning. Naturally, you will not teach a single student for the rest of
your life, but you will frequently work with them long enough to impart an
important lesson: there is a lot to learn in life—more than any one instructor or
school could ever impart in a lifetime. The abilities could be anything from
sports to music to painting; the knowledge could be about science, arithmetic, or
learning to read. The vastness of whatever you teach can inspire surprise,
excitement, and inquiry. It may provide as justification for optimism for both
your students and life in general. Even while learning frequently concentrates
on urgent, short-term issues, when correctly understood, learning is an ongoing
process. One advantage that not everyone in society shares as a teacher is the
justification to guide students beyond what they can learn from you, in addition
to imparting important knowledge and skills.

music to painting; the knowledge could be about science, arithmetic, or learning
to read. The vastness of whatever you teach can inspire surprise, excitement,
and inquiry. It may provide as justification for optimism for both your students
and life in general. Even while learning frequently concentrates on urgent,
short-term issues, when correctly understood, learning is an ongoing process.
One advantage that not everyone in society shares as a teacher is the
justification to guide students beyond what they can learn from you, in addition
to imparting important knowledge and skills.
Of course, there is more to the importance of teaching than this. Take the
"young people" mentioned above, for example. They might be six years old in
one class and sixteen or older in another. They might be wealthy, impoverished,
or in the middle. Any ethnicity could be represented among them. English or
another language may be their first language. The options are endless. But
regardless of the specific pupils, they will all have human potential—talents and
personal attributes that may not yet be fully developed—that can benefit society
as leaders, professionals, or supporters of others. A teacher's role—indeed, their
privilege—is to assist certain "young people" in reaching their full potential.

more about computer use than I ever imagined. Many curricular materials are

who finish assignments early. I am spending more time testing and screening
children than I anticipated, which takes time away from teaching. It is not all
surprises, though. I thought I would be able to "light a fire" beneath children's

now available online, and computers assist students who need extra practice or
who finish assignments early. I am spending more time testing and screening
children than I anticipated, which takes time away from teaching. It is not all
surprises, though. I thought I would be able to "light a fire" beneath children's
eyes regarding reading. And with some kids, at least occasionally, that has
happened! You may accomplish this as a teacher by creating the foundation for
lifelong learning. Naturally, you will not teach a single student for the rest of
your life, but you will frequently work with them long enough to impart an
important lesson: there is a lot to learn in life—more than any one instructor or
school could ever impart in a lifetime. The abilities could be anything from
sports to music to painting; the knowledge could be about science, arithmetic, or
learning to read. The vastness of whatever you teach can inspire surprise,
excitement, and inquiry. It may provide as justification for optimism for both
your students and life in general. Even while learning frequently concentrates
on urgent, short-term issues, when correctly understood, learning is an ongoing
process. One advantage that not everyone in society shares as a teacher is the
justification to guide students beyond what they can learn from you, in addition
to imparting important knowledge and skills.
Of course, there is more to the importance of teaching than this. Take the
"young people" mentioned above, for example. They might be six years old in
one class and sixteen or older in another. They might be wealthy, impoverished,
or in the middle. Any ethnicity could be represented among them. English or
another language may be their first language. The options are endless. But
regardless of the specific pupils, they will all have human potential—talents and
personal attributes that may not yet be fully developed—that can benefit society
as leaders, professionals, or supporters of others. A teacher's role—indeed, their
privilege—is to assist certain "young people" in reaching their full potential.

"It is not what I had anticipated," he stated. "English is a second language for
five of my children. That was unexpected. Two, possibly three, of my students
have reading problems, and one of them has a part-time assistant. I have learned
more about computer use than I ever imagined. Many curricular materials are
now available online, and computers assist students who need extra practice or
who finish assignments early. I am spending more time testing and screening
children than I anticipated, which takes time away from teaching. It is not all
surprises, though. I thought I would be able to "light a fire" beneath children's
eyes regarding reading. And with some kids, at least occasionally, that has
happened! You may accomplish this as a teacher by creating the foundation for
lifelong learning. Naturally, you will not teach a single student for the rest of
your life, but you will frequently work with them long enough to impart an
important lesson: there is a lot to learn in life—more than any one instructor or
school could ever impart in a lifetime. The abilities could be anything from
sports to music to painting; the knowledge could be about science, arithmetic, or
learning to read. The vastness of whatever you teach can inspire surprise,
excitement, and inquiry. It may provide as justification for optimism for both
your students and life in general. Even while learning frequently concentrates
on urgent, short-term issues, when correctly understood, learning is an ongoing
process. One advantage that not everyone in society shares as a teacher is the
justification to guide students beyond what they can learn from you, in addition
to imparting important knowledge and skills.
Of course, there is more to the importance of teaching than this. Take the
"young people" mentioned above, for example. They might be six years old in
one class and sixteen or older in another. They might be wealthy, impoverished,

learning to read. The vastness of whatever you teach can inspire surprise,
excitement, and inquiry. It may provide as justification for optimism for both
your students and life in general. Even while learning frequently concentrates
on urgent, short-term issues, when correctly understood, learning is an ongoing
process. One advantage that not everyone in society shares as a teacher is the
justification to guide students beyond what they can learn from you, in addition
to imparting important knowledge and skills.
Of course, there is more to the importance of teaching than this. Take the
"young people" mentioned above, for example. They might be six years old in
one class and sixteen or older in another. They might be wealthy, impoverished,
or in the middle. Any ethnicity could be represented among them. English or
another language may be their first language. The options are endless. But
regardless of the specific pupils, they will all have human potential—talents and
personal attributes that may not yet be fully developed—that can benefit society
as leaders, professionals, or supporters of others. A teacher's role—indeed, their
privilege—is to assist certain "young people" in reaching their full potential.

who finish assignments early. I am spending more time testing and screening
children than I anticipated, which takes time away from teaching. It is not all
surprises, though. I thought I would be able to "light a fire" beneath children's
eyes regarding reading. And with some kids, at least occasionally, that has
happened! You may accomplish this as a teacher by creating the foundation for
lifelong learning. Naturally, you will not teach a single student for the rest of
your life, but you will frequently work with them long enough to impart an
important lesson: there is a lot to learn in life—more than any one instructor or
school could ever impart in a lifetime. The abilities could be anything from
sports to music to painting; the knowledge could be about science, arithmetic, or
learning to read. The vastness of whatever you teach can inspire surprise,
excitement, and inquiry. It may provide as justification for optimism for both
your students and life in general. Even while learning frequently concentrates
on urgent, short-term issues, when correctly understood, learning is an ongoing
process. One advantage that not everyone in society shares as a teacher is the
justification to guide students beyond what they can learn from you, in addition
to imparting important knowledge and skills.
Of course, there is more to the importance of teaching than this. Take the
"young people" mentioned above, for example. They might be six years old in
one class and sixteen or older in another. They might be wealthy, impoverished,
or in the middle. Any ethnicity could be represented among them. English or
another language may be their first language. The options are endless. But
regardless of the specific pupils, they will all have human potential—talents and
personal attributes that may not yet be fully developed—that can benefit society
as leaders, professionals, or supporters of others. A teacher's role—indeed, their
privilege—is to assist certain "young people" in reaching their full potential.

Another educator muses: Before he spoke to me, Nathan took a long breath. --
"It is not what I had anticipated," he stated. "English is a second language for
five of my children. That was unexpected. Two, possibly three, of my students
have reading problems, and one of them has a part-time assistant. I have learned
more about computer use than I ever imagined. Many curricular materials are
now available online, and computers assist students who need extra practice or
who finish assignments early. I am spending more time testing and screening
children than I anticipated, which takes time away from teaching. It is not all
surprises, though. I thought I would be able to "light a fire" beneath children's
eyes regarding reading. And with some kids, at least occasionally, that has
happened! You may accomplish this as a teacher by creating the foundation for
lifelong learning. Naturally, you will not teach a single student for the rest of
your life, but you will frequently work with them long enough to impart an
important lesson: there is a lot to learn in life—more than any one instructor or
school could ever impart in a lifetime. The abilities could be anything from
sports to music to painting; the knowledge could be about science, arithmetic, or
learning to read. The vastness of whatever you teach can inspire surprise,
excitement, and inquiry. It may provide as justification for optimism for both
your students and life in general. Even while learning frequently concentrates
on urgent, short-term issues, when correctly understood, learning is an ongoing
process. One advantage that not everyone in society shares as a teacher is the
justification to guide students beyond what they can learn from you, in addition
to imparting important knowledge and skills.
Of course, there is more to the importance of teaching than this. Take the
"young people" mentioned above, for example. They might be six years old in
one class and sixteen or older in another. They might be wealthy, impoverished,
or in the middle. Any ethnicity could be represented among them. English or

your students and life in general. Even while learning frequently concentrates
on urgent, short-term issues, when correctly understood, learning is an ongoing
process. One advantage that not everyone in society shares as a teacher is the
justification to guide students beyond what they can learn from you, in addition
to imparting important knowledge and skills.
Of course, there is more to the importance of teaching than this. Take the
"young people" mentioned above, for example. They might be six years old in
one class and sixteen or older in another. They might be wealthy, impoverished,
or in the middle. Any ethnicity could be represented among them. English or
another language may be their first language. The options are endless. But
regardless of the specific pupils, they will all have human potential—talents and
personal attributes that may not yet be fully developed—that can benefit society
as leaders, professionals, or supporters of others. A teacher's role—indeed, their
privilege—is to assist certain "young people" in reaching their full potential.

surprises, though. I thought I would be able to "light a fire" beneath children's
eyes regarding reading. And with some kids, at least occasionally, that has
happened! You may accomplish this as a teacher by creating the foundation for
lifelong learning. Naturally, you will not teach a single student for the rest of
your life, but you will frequently work with them long enough to impart an
important lesson: there is a lot to learn in life—more than any one instructor or
school could ever impart in a lifetime. The abilities could be anything from
sports to music to painting; the knowledge could be about science, arithmetic, or
learning to read. The vastness of whatever you teach can inspire surprise,
excitement, and inquiry. It may provide as justification for optimism for both
your students and life in general. Even while learning frequently concentrates
on urgent, short-term issues, when correctly understood, learning is an ongoing
process. One advantage that not everyone in society shares as a teacher is the
justification to guide students beyond what they can learn from you, in addition
to imparting important knowledge and skills.
Of course, there is more to the importance of teaching than this. Take the
"young people" mentioned above, for example. They might be six years old in
one class and sixteen or older in another. They might be wealthy, impoverished,
or in the middle. Any ethnicity could be represented among them. English or
another language may be their first language. The options are endless. But
regardless of the specific pupils, they will all have human potential—talents and
personal attributes that may not yet be fully developed—that can benefit society
as leaders, professionals, or supporters of others. A teacher's role—indeed, their
privilege—is to assist certain "young people" in reaching their full potential.

"It is not what I had anticipated," he stated. "English is a second language for
five of my children. That was unexpected. Two, possibly three, of my students
have reading problems, and one of them has a part-time assistant. I have learned
more about computer use than I ever imagined. Many curricular materials are
now available online, and computers assist students who need extra practice or
who finish assignments early. I am spending more time testing and screening
children than I anticipated, which takes time away from teaching. It is not all
surprises, though. I thought I would be able to "light a fire" beneath children's
eyes regarding reading. And with some kids, at least occasionally, that has
happened! You may accomplish this as a teacher by creating the foundation for
lifelong learning. Naturally, you will not teach a single student for the rest of
your life, but you will frequently work with them long enough to impart an
important lesson: there is a lot to learn in life—more than any one instructor or
school could ever impart in a lifetime. The abilities could be anything from
sports to music to painting; the knowledge could be about science, arithmetic, or
learning to read. The vastness of whatever you teach can inspire surprise,
excitement, and inquiry. It may provide as justification for optimism for both
your students and life in general. Even while learning frequently concentrates
on urgent, short-term issues, when correctly understood, learning is an ongoing
process. One advantage that not everyone in society shares as a teacher is the
justification to guide students beyond what they can learn from you, in addition
to imparting important knowledge and skills.
Of course, there is more to the importance of teaching than this. Take the
"young people" mentioned above, for example. They might be six years old in
one class and sixteen or older in another. They might be wealthy, impoverished,
or in the middle. Any ethnicity could be represented among them. English or
another language may be their first language. The options are endless. But

on urgent, short-term issues, when correctly understood, learning is an ongoing
process. One advantage that not everyone in society shares as a teacher is the
justification to guide students beyond what they can learn from you, in addition
to imparting important knowledge and skills. Of course, there is more to the
importance of teaching than this. Take the "young people" mentioned above, for
example. They might be six years old in one class and sixteen or older in
another. They might be wealthy, impoverished, or in the middle. Any ethnicity
could be represented among them. English or another language may be their
first language. The options are endless. But regardless of the specific pupils,
they will all have human potential—talents and personal attributes that may not
yet be fully developed—that can benefit society as leaders, professionals, or
supporters of others. A teacher's role—indeed, their privilege—is to assist
certain "young people" in reaching their full potential. Another educator muses:
Before he spoke to me, Nathan took a long breath. -- "It is not what I had
anticipated," he stated. "English is a second language for five of my children.
That was unexpected. Two, possibly three, of my students have reading
problems, and one of them has a part-time assistant. I have learned more about
computer use than I ever imagined. Many curricular materials are now available
online, and computers assist students who need extra practice or who finish
assignments early. I am spending more time testing and screening children than
I anticipated, which takes time away from teaching. It is not all surprises,
though. I thought I would be able to "light a fire" beneath children's eyes
regarding reading. And with some kids, at least occasionally, that has happened!
You may accomplish this as a teacher by creating the foundation for lifelong
learning. Naturally, you will not teach a single student for the rest of your life,
but you will frequently work with them long enough to impart an important
lesson: there is a lot to learn in life—more than any one instructor or school
could ever impart in a lifetime. The abilities could be anything from sports to
music to painting; the knowledge could be about science, arithmetic, or learning
to read. The vastness of whatever you teach can inspire surprise, excitement,
and inquiry. It may provide as justification for optimism for both your students
and life in general. Even while learning frequently concentrates on urgent,
short-term issues, when correctly understood, learning is an ongoing process.

eyes regarding reading. And with some kids, at least occasionally, that has
happened! You may accomplish this as a teacher by creating the foundation for
lifelong learning. Naturally, you will not teach a single student for the rest of
your life, but you will frequently work with them long enough to impart an
important lesson: there is a lot to learn in life—more than any one instructor or
school could ever impart in a lifetime. The abilities could be anything from
sports to music to painting; the knowledge could be about science, arithmetic, or
learning to read. The vastness of whatever you teach can inspire surprise,
excitement, and inquiry. It may provide as justification for optimism for both
your students and life in general. Even while learning frequently concentrates
on urgent, short-term issues, when correctly understood, learning is an ongoing
process. One advantage that not everyone in society shares as a teacher is the
justification to guide students beyond what they can learn from you, in addition
to imparting important knowledge and skills.
Of course, there is more to the importance of teaching than this. Take the
"young people" mentioned above, for example. They might be six years old in
one class and sixteen or older in another. They might be wealthy, impoverished,
or in the middle. Any ethnicity could be represented among them. English or
another language may be their first language. The options are endless. But
regardless of the specific pupils, they will all have human potential—talents and
personal attributes that may not yet be fully developed—that can benefit society
as leaders, professionals, or supporters of others. A teacher's role—indeed, their
privilege—is to assist certain "young people" in reaching their full potential.

"It is not what I had anticipated," he stated. "English is a second language for
five of my children. That was unexpected. Two, possibly three, of my students
have reading problems, and one of them has a part-time assistant. I have learned
more about computer use than I ever imagined. Many curricular materials are
now available online, and computers assist students who need extra practice or
who finish assignments early. I am spending more time testing and screening
children than I anticipated, which takes time away from teaching. It is not all
surprises, though. I thought I would be able to "light a fire" beneath children's
eyes regarding reading. And with some kids, at least occasionally, that has
happened! You may accomplish this as a teacher by creating the foundation for
lifelong learning. Naturally, you will not teach a single student for the rest of
your life, but you will frequently work with them long enough to impart an
important lesson: there is a lot to learn in life—more than any one instructor or
school could ever impart in a lifetime. The abilities could be anything from
sports to music to painting; the knowledge could be about science, arithmetic, or
learning to read. The vastness of whatever you teach can inspire surprise,
excitement, and inquiry. It may provide as justification for optimism for both
your students and life in general. Even while learning frequently concentrates
on urgent, short-term issues, when correctly understood, learning is an ongoing
process. One advantage that not everyone in society shares as a teacher is the
justification to guide students beyond what they can learn from you, in addition
to imparting important knowledge and skills.
Of course, there is more to the importance of teaching than this. Take the
"young people" mentioned above, for example. They might be six years old in
one class and sixteen or older in another. They might be wealthy, impoverished,
or in the middle. Any ethnicity could be represented among them. English or
another language may be their first language. The options are endless. But

personal attributes that may not yet be fully developed—that can benefit society

process. One advantage that not everyone in society shares as a teacher is the
justification to guide students beyond what they can learn from you, in addition
to imparting important knowledge and skills.
Of course, there is more to the importance of teaching than this. Take the
"young people" mentioned above, for example. They might be six years old in
one class and sixteen or older in another. They might be wealthy, impoverished,
or in the middle. Any ethnicity could be represented among them. English or
another language may be their first language. The options are endless. But
regardless of the specific pupils, they will all have human potential—talents and
personal attributes that may not yet be fully developed—that can benefit society
as leaders, professionals, or supporters of others. A teacher's role—indeed, their
privilege—is to assist certain "young people" in reaching their full potential.

lifelong learning. Naturally, you will not teach a single student for the rest of
your life, but you will frequently work with them long enough to impart an
important lesson: there is a lot to learn in life—more than any one instructor or
school could ever impart in a lifetime. The abilities could be anything from
sports to music to painting; the knowledge could be about science, arithmetic, or
learning to read. The vastness of whatever you teach can inspire surprise,

happened! You may accomplish this as a teacher by creating the foundation for
lifelong learning. Naturally, you will not teach a single student for the rest of
your life, but you will frequently work with them long enough to impart an
important lesson: there is a lot to learn in life—more than any one instructor or
school could ever impart in a lifetime. The abilities could be anything from
sports to music to painting; the knowledge could be about science, arithmetic, or
learning to read. The vastness of whatever you teach can inspire surprise,
excitement, and inquiry. It may provide as justification for optimism for both
your students and life in general. Even while learning frequently concentrates
on urgent, short-term issues, when correctly understood, learning is an ongoing
process. One advantage that not everyone in society shares as a teacher is the
justification to guide students beyond what they can learn from you, in addition
to imparting important knowledge and skills.
Of course, there is more to the importance of teaching than this. Take the
"young people" mentioned above, for example. They might be six years old in
one class and sixteen or older in another. They might be wealthy, impoverished,
or in the middle. Any ethnicity could be represented among them. English or
another language may be their first language. The options are endless. But
regardless of the specific pupils, they will all have human potential—talents and
personal attributes that may not yet be fully developed—that can benefit society
as leaders, professionals, or supporters of others. A teacher's role—indeed, their
privilege—is to assist certain "young people" in reaching their full potential.

Another educator muses: Before he spoke to me, Nathan took a long breath. --
"It is not what I had anticipated," he stated. "English is a second language for
five of my children. That was unexpected. Two, possibly three, of my students
have reading problems, and one of them has a part-time assistant. I have learned
more about computer use than I ever imagined. Many curricular materials are
now available online, and computers assist students who need extra practice or
who finish assignments early. I am spending more time testing and screening
children than I anticipated, which takes time away from teaching. It is not all
surprises, though. I thought I would be able to "light a fire" beneath children's
eyes regarding reading. And with some kids, at least occasionally, that has
happened! You may accomplish this as a teacher by creating the foundation for
lifelong learning. Naturally, you will not teach a single student for the rest of
your life, but you will frequently work with them long enough to impart an
important lesson: there is a lot to learn in life—more than any one instructor or
school could ever impart in a lifetime. The abilities could be anything from
sports to music to painting; the knowledge could be about science, arithmetic, or
learning to read. The vastness of whatever you teach can inspire surprise,
excitement, and inquiry. It may provide as justification for optimism for both
your students and life in general. Even while learning frequently concentrates
on urgent, short-term issues, when correctly understood, learning is an ongoing
process. One advantage that not everyone in society shares as a teacher is the
justification to guide students beyond what they can learn from you, in addition
to imparting important knowledge and skills.
Of course, there is more to the importance of teaching than this. Take the
"young people" mentioned above, for example. They might be six years old in
one class and sixteen or older in another. They might be wealthy, impoverished,
or in the middle. Any ethnicity could be represented among them. English or
another language may be their first language. The options are endless. But
regardless of the specific pupils, they will all have human potential—talents and
personal attributes that may not yet be fully developed—that can benefit society
as leaders, professionals, or supporters of others. A teacher's role—indeed, their
privilege—is to assist certain "young people" in reaching their full potential.
