That's maybe just a rare example but I will never forget that lesson, I don't know if it was professional or not but I certainly respected my teacher even more so after that and I'm sure that the boy appreciated it more than anything.

Thats amazing. I love teachers like that bolded. Too many try be 'cool' and 'in the know how' and ignore the 1s trying to achieve something.
