the students had to tell the 15-year veteran teacher what to do and where to go in the room. I'm so glad the semester ended and she'll never have that woman again, but others in the future won't be so lucky.

My wife's a 30-year veteran teacher. Some of her kids have language issues, yet the drills go smoothly. Even the autistic ones have little problems, but my wife acts very calmly for everyone's sake.
