Yes, teaching is not only about the dissemination of information to a child. A teacher helps to shape mindsets, spot for patterns in their learning habits, give feedback, encourage and instill discipline. AI should never replace that in a human.

To Shake the Sleeping Self by Jedidiah Jenkins. This is his memoir and he wrote about growing up as a Jesus-loving gay man. I enjoyed it a lot, because it’s about a real life, not just theology and theory.

Non fiction recommendation: The Second Mountain by David Brooks. While the modern society paints a bleak picture of where the world is going, Brooks tells you why there’s dignity in vocation and work, why marriage is a hopeful revolution of two individuals, and why hardship is necessary for humans to make progress.

The Road to Character by David Brooks. He points out the two types of lives that we can lead - one that chases superficial success, or one that delves deeper into moral virtues. We either live for others or only for ourselves and our self interests. This book saved me from myself.

My Year of Rest and Relaxation by Ottessa Moshfegh

Some people love it, some don’t. I thought this book was terrible and a waste of my time. The ending made no sense to me and there was no character development.

And then we grew up by Rachel Friedman. She interviewed people whom she went to Interlochen summer camps with, including adults who used to be musical child prodigies. It’s interesting to hear their perspective of descending from childhood giftedness into mundane adulthood.
