Favorite/Least Favorite Part of Teaching Mr. Henry’s favorite part of teaching is the subject itself that he teaches and being able to break it down to where his students are able to understand it and then build on it Mr. Henry’s least favorite part of teaching is dealing with school administration officials who have not been in the classroom for over ten years but still feel they have the authority to tell how a classroom should be run. He also doesn’t like the general lack of appreciation for teachers as a whole.
