Professor Teschner

“A person cannot truly teach when all they are in the classroom is a shell of their true self and their craft has been reduced to a performance that does not reflect their passion for the art and craft of teaching… Ratchet youth need ratchet teachers who create classrooms where core selves are expressed freely and with joy. Otherwise, schools foster the performance of role identities that counter the core identity and cause youth to trade in their joyful passion for learning with an anger that hides this passion.”

(Edmin, 2021: 80)
