It would be fair to say that teaching is a family business. My mom, dad, 2 cousins and myself have all been teachers. I love to teach others about the world we live in, be it through science, history, math or English. I understand how frustrating it is not to achieve a goal you have set for yourself. When I was in third grade I had a lisp and couldn't read at grade level.
