Teaching, to me, is that guiding hand. I believe that teaching, whether it be to one student or 200, is the most important task in all of human history; therefore, education and knowledge are the most noble pursuits in that history....

With that being said, I have extensive experience with MLA format and some...

I'm a student as well, and as a student,...
