For Real

Today was the second time I had a conference
with one of my students parents.
I remember the first time we were in the meeting room.
Parents, Counselor, Translator and me The Teacher.
We were there discussing and helping each other.
Trying to see how we can support that child together.

Suddenly it hit me. This is the real thing.
All that studying, case studies, classes, internships, discussions, projects...
That's over and now it's really happening.
I'm really seeing things first hand.
Knowing what it's like to be part of assisting, helping and reaching out to
another person by being a teacher.
