What a relief!

Turns out, I don't have to like teaching to be good at it. That's fortunate, because many days, I can't stand teaching, or more precisely, what it has become. The endless rounds of meetings and documentation while nothing of substance changes and little of substance is accomplished. The total lack of administrative support. The complete apathy of certain parents and students, usually those who can least afford to be apathetic. So, it's a good thing that good teaching and misery are not mutually exclusive.
