Seeing Scholesy made you stand back and realize you had a long way to go, because he was awesome.

Students never think it can be the teacher's fault and so I thought I was stupid. I was frustrated and would come home and cry because I couldn't do it.

And so I learned how widespread their educational evangelism really was.
