No more Teacher Brown

My teaching career here at SISU, at least for the foreseeable future,
has come to a close. Three years have passed virtually over night,
though the days were sometimes long. It is very difficult to leave this
place. And I hope that someday I might return again. I gave as much as
I could to my students, and they gave much back to me. The picture is
me, just after finishing my last class. Below is a note from one of my
students.

"I think you're more than a teacher. You're a brother to us. You care
about us. You showed us a brand-new course. You gave everyone
opportunities and tried to make everyone to talk in class.You encouraged
us to be ourselves, to love ouselves and to have confidence and faith in
ourselves. You said we are all important to you,but don't you know that
you are also very important to us? I am writing to let you know how much
we like you and how much we appreciate everything you give us. Hearing
about your moving to Beijing, we are upset. I promise we will miss you
for I'm already missing you now."

That is why I teach. For them and for myself.

Best of luck for your future. Life is like that. Every good thing has to come to an end. It is sad, though.

I will tell you, no matter how hard you try, it is difficult to come back at the same place again. I can understand how you feel.

Best of luck. I am a teacher too and REALLY want a change, but I am too scared to make the leap. Congratulations and good luck.

Change can be a very freighting thing because we don't know what to expect, but stay strong and just do what makes you happy.
