"One of the things I love about teaching alternate route students is seeing candidates find fulfillment in an arena that offers so many contrasts from the life arc they pursued. I especially love when candidates develop a full appreciation of how good teachers should be revered. The opportunity to interact with the future faces that will be shaping youth is reassuring and priceless."
