To be a great teacher, you have to have many superpowers! The best teachers are more than just educators and lecturers spouting lesson plans in front of a classroom of students. The best teachers are counselors, advocates, cheerleaders, and sergeants. The list goes on and on. They can stop time by talking about the most exciting things. They can teach you how to fly, because of that feeling you get after you have learned something that you never thought you could do! They often need to be many things to many people at the same time, but they can magically make every individual feel special and important. And yet, they are often not paid for all the work that they do, nor credited and respected for it.
