A teacher...of sorts.

I am a teacher, of sorts. I have students, but I don't teach them, exactly; I help them learn; I encourage them to focus; I make sure they get their work done. I am more of a facilitator really, but that title just isn't quite as appealing as "teacher, of sorts." At least, I don't think so. I want to be a teacher, and I guess you could say I'm a teacher in training, of sorts. But, we all must start somewhere, and this is where I'm starting, as far as teaching is concerned. I know I have a long way to go and many many things to learn. In some ways I feel like I have no idea what I'm doing or how best to help, encourage, etc. My best comfort is that I'm only a teacher "of sorts" at the moment; I have time. However, I don't want to waste any time getting going. This could take awhile, and as we all know: Rome wasn't built in a day...
