This Teacher Life

When I was an educator, students would always find me on social media! “Fine, but you cannot be my friend until you graduate,” I would say! Now I have hundreds of great former students who are online with me! They interact with my pages, tag me in funny mentions, and send me funny memes all of the time! This one is from @aug.mariche today, made me chuckle! Thanks for the laughs Augustine! https://www.instagram.com/p/CoNi5ALOa19/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
