I left the teaching service 14 years ago.Next year I will be going to a secondary school to teach mathematics. I was hesitant and anxious when I was given a 'challenging' class to teach. I wasn't ready to handle a new generation of youths. I am glad I came upon this website. the articles reminded me that teaching is about people not academics. The students may forget what we teach but not who and what we were to them. thank you for sharing your precious discoveries.
