I make mistakes too. Episode #006
I make mistakes too.
Believe it or not, I'm not the flawless STEAM teacher Sensei you might think I am! I've had my share of mishaps, like losing a lesson plan or sending a student's assignment to the Bermuda Triangle. But, I swear, for every mistake and imperfection... I own up to it. Being human, complete with all the quirks, is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more fun than trying to be the AI version of yourself.
