How would you describe people who typically thrive in this industry?
My fellow teachers are very outgoing and outspoken; they are not shy. They do not back away from a challenge and are very creative.
They are also warm, kind, and willing to share ideas. No one feels like their idea is theirs alone and cannot be shared. That's how I would describe the people in the industry.
