    1. This post highlights the problem with calling teachers superheroes. Calling them superheroes sets the bar so high that no teacher can mean this. Teachers can be heroes only if the system supports them. Otherwise, everything they do is self sacrificing. trevormuir.com/blog/teachers-superheroes

    I really did want to make the university system better for students. But I did it at a cost of myself, and ironically, my self sacrificing made it easier for the system to stay the same. That's why teachers need supportive systems, not unrealistic expectations.
