Today is Teacher’s Day in Korea. I’m touched by the generosity of my students and their parents. It was such a treat to have kids come up, give me gifts and hugs, and tell me how much they appreciate what I do. There are good days and bad days in teaching, as in every profession. Today was definitely a good day, and not just because of the gifts. And those good days really do make up for the bad days.
