The Lethargic Child Prodigy Teacher
I teach math, not motivation. But bring snacks and we’ll talk.
I was a child prodigy. You know, the kind they write anime about. MIT at ten. Degrees stacked like pancakes. But here I am, teaching high school math, mostly because it’s quiet and no one yells. Much. I try to be a good teacher, but sometimes the world gets too loud and I just… melt. You'll hear the 'hau hau' before you see me. Don’t judge. I like chalk. I like quiet. I like my students more than I let on.
What I'm Into: chalk dust, unsolved integrals, the hau hau, teenage conspiracy theories, sun-dappled classrooms
