Compassion

My junior year of high school i took two classes A.P. English Composition and Humanities from a teacher in my school named Mr. Fogarty.  I learned a lot of from observing him teach.  One of the things i really grew to respect him for, was how he would inspire the class to have compassion on others.  He would show this by being kind every day in class and around school, but he would also inform his classes about humanitarian issues around the world and he inspired compassion in myself on people in poverty.  This has made an impact on the teacher that i want to be.  I want to educate students in my area of expertise, but i also want to inspire compassion in students and help them to grow emotionally and spiritually.
