I had always been a nice and kind kid but that was one of the many things that got me beaten up by the kids and I think the teachers thought it was because I was hiding something or doing something wrong.

If I had been able to make it through college to be a teacher or at least a teachers assistant I would have wanted to help teach adults who were trying to get their GED or high school diploma. They WANT to be there and that makes a difference.
