"There's just a climate among our colleagues at school (...) Of course, there are a few who think differently, but the majority are really very trusting and open with each other, and very appreciative. That's why isolation isn't an issue at my school (...) And at home, I'm lucky that my husband was also involved in teaching and knows what it entails and how exhausting it is to have taught two seminars in a row and that it's different from working in a lab."
"Well, if I didn't have that—it's a job that can be really difficult. You have to deal with a lot of problems—problems that people tell you about, problems you have yourself, with students, with colleagues, with parents. And you really need to have effective ways to process it—maybe through therapy (...) And if you don't have that and you don't have a way to talk through it or process it somewhere else, then I can very well imagine that it can be very difficult. [The problems] start to circle around in your head and you have no way to let them go or even make them smaller."
