“I think teachers are at their best, not when they are delivering a brilliantly innovative lesson...but when they are demonstrating patience and compassion toward a student who is struggling. @SteeleThoughts

“You might never remember the most powerful conversation you have with a student...but that student will. @SteeleThoughts

“Rarely does anyone see the scars, the heart break, the extra hours, the sacrifice. But those who recognize that success requires all that and more, will cherish it deeply when success comes their way.” @drmike_goddard
