Profession «teacher», once one of the most honorable, now, alas, has become a synonym for «loser.» Particularly deplorable situation with school teachers. «Loser,» the most courteous that can hear the teacher at the school from the students behind him. They almost do not notice what they are doing for them, these amazing people.

Profession «English teacher»
