As a Teacher

Helping people especially kids break into their potentials is quite a chore, that is why the role of a teacher cannot be down played in the up bringing of a child.
Teachers are humanitarians, they can also be referred to as "do-gooders". Being a teacher is far more than standing in front of students to dish out a topic from a lesson on a particular subject. It starts with your students and ends with you. This is so because your students reflects you. They can't give what they don't have.
A child's first teacher are the parents, whatever path you want your kids to take you create, 70% of kids today want to be what they are exposed to, for it is said Charity begins at home.
Back to the class room, because these parents have failed in their responsibility is not an excuse for you as a teacher. You must understand that no matter how unprogressive a child is in class, as a teacher never tell that student otherwise, remind he or she that moving forward, making progress is possible, restore the believe and convert that potential energy in that child into kinetic don't give up on them, you must always make them see that they are the best, and it's all their effort.
Students like teachers comes from different places, some from the high and others the low hence don't expect them to fly at the same pace even if the cloud is the same, the wings are not. There is a general methodology and also a teacher to student methodology in one class.

Some students needs constant monitoring and reminder and this might not be the case for others. You must not always be a teacher to your students all the time, sometimes you just need to be friends with them, build a relationship, and just to make you happy and not lose that friendship they will sit up not even for their own sake but for yours.
Am proud to be a Teacher. Teachers are nation builders.
