That is why I teach!

"Mr Wood, I just realised I really like to read," said one of my students this morning. The piles of paper and assessments to analyse didn't go away, but faded in importance for the rest of the day. These are the rewards of teaching, those moments of revelation, seeing the joy of learning shining from our students eyes.

  1. Totally agree with you and share your moment here. When I started podcasting with KPE that was one of the immediate rewards- seeing students hooked into reading who quickly came to love reading for its own sake. This makes it so worth while. Good onya :)
