What Teachers Make

Grades are coming out this week – and feeling demoralized by the number of D’s and F’s that students in my class should be receiving, I was looking for inspiration. I came back to the Taylor Mali Def Poetry that I have listened to before – and that has always given me the chills to listen to his passion and eloquence. Now when I listened, however, for the first time since I began teaching – the chills were at the familiarity of his sentiments. I thought that I would share it – though I’m sure many have already see it.
