Humility

I know that within every day I am wrong about something. So the last time I was wrong was earlier today. I don’t know everything I don’t hope to know everything. Confidence is extremely important, but teachers also need to know when they are wrong. A teacher needs to know the limits of their own knowledge and admit to that, so if they encounter something they are not familiar with they can say they don’t know the answer. With humility a teacher can then explore the limits of their knowledge and learn more.
