"When I am not teaching, I love spending time with my family. I have a wife and two young children. There is nothing better than spending evenings and weekends with them. Recently, we have been taking a lot of walks and hiking around the lake nearby. It is moments like this that give my life fulfillment."

When I am not teaching, I love being active. Whether I am hiking, running, or playing basketball, my body needs to be in tip-top shape for teaching.

Teachers often forget to think about their own health when they are thinking about their students all the time. Never forget this. Great advice you are giving.
