Présentation de l'éditeur

Why does someone pursue a career in teaching? Some may believe that it is because of summer vacations, Thanksgiving, Christmas and Easter Breaks, all the Monday holidays that make for short work weeks, the “easy” hours, and the “great” pay and benefits. Not so. Some believe that it is easy to stand in front of a group of young people and motivate them to reach down and grab onto as much knowledge as they can to help them become the best that they can be. Not so. Some teach because they have a field of interest that they were inspired to learn and want to share that with young people. Maybe, but there is much more than the Reading, Writing, and Arithmetic that makes up a teacher, and the rewards don’t always come in money or benefits. This compilation of stories takes Education, and the life of educators, far beyond the scope and realm of the 3 “R”s.
