Teachers Teaching Teachers


Rating: MS
I was pondering in the shower this morning. (Why is it always in the shower and me without a paper and pencil?) I was thinking how one of my former students is in graduate school and might have a teacher of one of his teachers. Then I thought how I could think of at least one other student of mine who has the possibility of having one of my former teachers as his teacher.
How strange is that? The student I had now having a teacher I once had. . .hm. . .
It is interesting to think that the same people who taught me may now be teaching the students I taught. Usually one doesn't think of it running that way; rather, they think of the students teaching others who teach others and so on.
I wonder what those teachers think of my students. I hope to be a credit to my teachers, and I hope they don't think, "Who taught you this stuff?"; or worse, having them think, "Didn't anybody teach you this?"
Conversely, I hope I can do my teachers the honor of having our mutual student say, "Oh yeah, that sounds like what Mrs. Laun taught me."

Your Result: The West
 

Your accent is the lowest common denominator of American speech. Unless you're a SoCal surfer, no one thinks you have an accent. And really, you may not even be from the West at all, you could easily be from Florida or one of those big Southern cities like Dallas or Atlanta.
