True learning is figuring out how to use what you already know in order to go beyond what you already think.
Jerome Bruner
When I first started teaching, I never ate lunch. At least, not during my lunch time. I was too busy working with students (individually and in small groups) reteaching material, tutoring, and otherwise remediating their understanding of something I wished they had understood the first time. Sometimes, I even had a backlog of students waiting for my help and attention. It seemed like a never-ending cycle.
