What is the most inspiring part of your job?
I believe the classroom is one of the places where humans slowly transform. Through the daily encounter of ideas, stories, language, order, challenge, and beauty, souls become enchanted and active. As a teacher, I am not just a presenter of knowledge, but a guide of precious, human souls, and that is a beautiful gift and a high honor to be a part of everyday.
