the secret to being a good teacher:
I think it's just as important to know now what you knew then.
so many people forget the things that made them great when they were young. theyre too busy thinking about all of things they didnt know then that tey ignore the things they did know.
some of my students are really competitive.
"i dont know if its a fruit or a vegetable. but you put it in-

- When I graduated college, I was in no rush to jump into the realworld swing of things. I figured I'd wait a month or two before heading out to join the rest of my class in the Great Job Hunt. Well, as tends to happen, time got away from me and one day I realized I had been living in my parents' basement for entirely too long. I was itching for an adventure. Bad. As luck would have it, I had a friend who was setting her sights on the Far East. "I'm going to Korea, come with!" she says. I knew in an instant that this is what I was waiting for. An adventure the likes of which I had never even begun to imagine. So I did it: Gwang-Ju S. Korea resident for 18 months. I had my fair share of awkward moments, misunderstandings and snafus, but I was loving every minute of it. Maybe not the food all the time, but I've been told it grows on you. 2011: The Korean adventure ended and I settled myself back in Europe. Prague, to be more exact. I became certified and survived Bohemian Poverty. It was most excellent. 2014: And now New Zealand has me. I've never been in this half of the world before, but I can already tell it's more fun.
