This short, passionate episode is a bit of a rant — but it comes from a place of deep care for students and the craft of teaching. If you're a teacher and you recognize yourself in any of the points raised, this isn't meant to offend — it's a call to reflect and rethink some habits that might be holding your learners back. If you're short on time, under pressure, or stuck in a routine — you're not alone. But that’s exactly why it's worth taking a moment to question, adjust, and improve. Teaching isn't about perfection; it's about intention.
