Teachers are paid an incredible amount of money. Despite constant pay increases, teachers complain more, do even less work, and test scores remain low. Not everyone who go to school to teacher are teacher material

[@letheafloyd1081]

Dustin, I can see your students informing others that you were one of their favorite teachers. The way you interact with them would make me want to be an every day student. Even the way you read stories to them, loved it. Keana, it's easy to see that you were meant to be a teacher. Covid has certainly changed the way teachers and students interact with one another. Lucky kids for having the two of you as teachers.

[@SimoneandPat]

Keanna love your hair! I always said if I could do it all over again I would have been a teacher or school guidance counselor. A lot of kids just need that one person to push them and believe in them. From traveling around the country and visiting different schools to help the teachers with school supplies etc... talking to the kids I find out that most of their homes are broken and they enjoy coming to school because of their teachers so it's so important to have great teachers who truly care. Can't wait to continue my journey and visit more deserving schools. Dustin you are an amazing teacher love your interaction with them..keep it up guys!!
