The best teachers I ever had, growing up, were the one's who bothered to explain why their feild was important--to them, to society, to science, to art, to being a person. I remember when my high school english teacher finally put togther that I wasn't just learning to write essays, I was practicing a tradition of communication. Every feild is like it's own language, and learning to speak this new language helps us to make sense of the world with a new perspective. The joy of my work is watching my students grow as people by learning music and meditation.
