Why do you believe the teacher should be recognized or honored?

While raising a toddler and being the only working member in the household, his students think he is the best and I see how much time and energy he puts into his preparation for them while making time for fun activities using math and other elements that the children can appreciate.

What's one thing you want everyone to know about the teacher?

He comes from a single-family home, was raised by his mother, and ended up in the profession that his father found joy in as well... The apple did not fall far from the tree. He achieved his MBA by age 23.
