Yesterday two of the students from one of my classes graded for their next belt. When I saw how well they performed, I was ridiculously giddy.
I work very hard with my students, trying to think of different ways to present the material so they learn it and want to practice to get better. It is completely awesome and cool when you see the results of someone who has caught the 'Oh Wow! Do I love this!' bug. It doesn't always happen when there is a promotion, sometimes I watch them in class and can see that they have been trying hard to get better. It is quite an awesome feeling! It is so exciting when you see that they have made the choice to improve themselves, it's like a little glimpse into their personal journey, what an honor! I hope that I have the privilege of teaching for a long, long time.
