I highly recommend trying to teach 5th graders how to solve two-step word problems in math if you'd ever like to see how difficult this skill actually is to teach sometimes, lol.
When we did skills testing in school eons ago it came up recommending me as a future Teacher. Having quite a bit of experience from the other side, especially with the fuck-wits in some of my classes, I thought..... NO WAY!
When I first started college, I was a journalism major. I was convinced I would be a sports reporter and write about football for the Denver Post, then take of Rick Reilly's column once day in Sports Illustrated. But my work study job was a tutor in the America Reads program and I ended up starting to miss a class here and there to keep tutoring and working with kids in classrooms. My sophomore year I changed to education and it is absolutely exhausting but worth it.

YES!! Another favorite of mine is that teachers tell you HOW to think, not WHAT to think.
It's a very useful (and rare!) skill....
