#LoveTeaching Triolet* Style

Posted: Feb 18, 2022

I #loveteaching because I love to learn

I am a better person because of the lessons my students teach me

Each day brings forth new lessons, insights, and opportunities to grow

I #loveteaching because I love to learn

Transformations and light bulb expressions are reminders

of the importance of this heart work that I do

I #loveteaching because I love to learn

I am a better person because of the lessons my students teach me
