To the students who are nervous: Thank you for teaching me about courage.
To the students who laugh when I fumble my words: Thank you for teaching me that imperfections break down barriers.
To the students who gently correct when I make mistakes: Thank you for teaching me the value of patience.
To the students who offer criticism: Thank you for teaching me humility.
To the students who tremble as I help with your first poses: Thank you for your trust.
To the students who struggle: Thank you for teaching me to face insecurity.
To the students who never came back: Thank you for teaching me to let go.
For every kind word, every smile, every gift, every gesture of gratitude, and every single time you attend my class, I thank you. You have taught me how to be a teacher.
