All about teachers and the world of teaching; teachers sharing their best and worst interactions with students, best teaching practices, the path to becoming a teacher, and more.
The Best Teacher for the Student
A good teacher knows how to listen to their students and understand that, even though they appear young and carefree, they can have problems; some days are worse than others, they can have stress, or even become depressed. The teacher has to know how to get the students feeling better so that they can continue learning, so perhaps she can treat her students to something good for lunch like instant pot spaghetti squash or Mexican spaghetti. She knows that after a good lunch students will feel much better, and if anyone needs to talk to her some more she can arrange to meet them after class to find out what their problems are.

Being an Archery Instructor Completely Changed My Life
It's not like anyone really plans to become an archery instructor, or at least, I didn't. It more just fell into my lap when I was training to be a camp counselor, and happened to be the best during our archery instructor training (thanks to USA Archery, but more on them later). So, after being surprised into being the archery instructor, I got another surprise. We teach to a camp of all Autistic children, as well as multiple other camps, which meant I had to have multiple sets of equipment to keep track of, and be prepared for, setting up multiple ranges at each camp.
