Thus Teaching A Bonus Lesson On Persistence
-
This is dedication: A teacher of a medical assistant course at an adult school lost her job in a budget cut, and the course was canceled in mid-semester. But she decided that she didn't want to let her students down, and her students agreed to an unusual situation: They all chipped in to buy equipment and she continued to teach the class in secret, negotiating the difficult issues of certification (she got that) and permits (nope) while not taking a salary. Some teachers do it for money while saying they care about the students; this one walked the walk, too. (CNN)
