‘Teachers of old lost their tempers, went to the bathroom, told jokes that fell flat; teachers of today play with their phones, get ingrown toenails, and sometimes eat way too much ice cream.’ (from Lion’s Roar)
I can’t vouch for the teachers of old, but I can certainly attest to the ordinariness – as well as extra-ordinariness – of teachers of today.
