Yes. I have watched good teachers completely change the life of my child--and it wasn't the content (though the content was integrated). It was love, which is to say that it was being really seen by another human being who just kept showing up for the kid. Even writing this, my eyes fill with tears thinking about it.

That's the real goodness of teaching—making someone feel seen and having that reverberate beyond that moment.

This is so sweet. It makes me want to try even harder to be that teacher :)

I very much believe that anyone who aims to be that teacher is that teacher.

AI cannot replace the relationship aspect of learning.

Say it again! If learning were just information-sharing, everything would be so much different.
