Thank you to everyone that replied to my posting. I'm going to give myself a couple of weeks to contemplate ...........though I have a feeling that I will switch eventually.........Cha-Cha; you really hit the nail on the head when you mentioned developing feelings/friendships toward teachers and students. That's a sticking point for me.........but you are right when you say that students come and go.......I know I have to do what's right for me.
For the record, my teacher has been teaching for over 6 years.......
Thank You everyone!
