Your boots crunch through the snow as you head over to greet your lesson. After introductions are made, a few moments are spent getting to know your class. It’s a perfect day for teaching.

Your lesson delivery is clear and effective, and you enjoy seeing the development of your class as they begin to understand and put your teaching into effect. Their eyes light up as skills become easier and movements smoother leading to a final sense of accomplishment.
