The Teacher

The mediocre teacher tells.
The good teacher explains.
The superior teacher demonstrates.
The great teacher inspires.
The resilient teacher survives.

The first four lines are a quote by William Arthur Ward. I added the fifth line after spending the day in a training workshop. I think it takes more endurance to live through the tedious training, than it does working with the students.

I like you line the best. Spoken like a true teacher. I love kids and hate meetings.
