0175: #Teaching is

#education #learning #SOSchat

Teaching, regardless of the state of education as an institution, requires a choice to live beyond concern for the individual self. It is a vocation, that at some level, requires its participants to concern themselves with the wellbeing of humanity. Teaching is an act of love at its most base level. It seeks the good of others and society. There are numerous interruptors to the act of teaching that blurs the initial goal and meaning that critical educator must disrupt themselves. We must remember—I must remember—education is an industry, teaching is not.
