In reality, students observe their teachers every day, and even without expertise in the field of education, students know implicitly a good teacher from a bad teacher.

Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas I play video games. I’m not sure I would classify myself as a gamer, but I like to play and have as long as I can remember. I went to school before the internet was available, so I remember having to manually look up everything.
