Spot on.
Nailed the teaching experience, from mentored to mentor, classroom to leadership, nation to nation, pedagogy to accountability and the conflicts within.
Gorgeously written, also. Cyclic, intertwined, past and present, following threads down rabbit holes in true educator tangents.
Remarkably easy to read, especially given the often heavy content, and a beautiful capture of what it is to teach.
