It pretty much goes without saying (but I’ll say it anyways) that teachers have the biggest hearts. Their passion to change the lives of young people for the better is unparalleled, and oftentimes, under appreciated.
You know what? Let’s just pause right here and have a quick round of applause for teachers.
Alrighty, now, back to business. Education can be a thankless job at times. With the long hours, low pay, unending flow of rambunctious kiddos (and their overbearing parents) who can blame teachers for burning out?
