For me, I think I'd love to teach creative writing and grammar, but I'd love to teach ged level topics.

When I worked in mental health, I did that a lot and it was really good for me to teach and help people who never had someone to work with them. I created a creative writing group at the mental health facility I worked at. They'd share their work during an open mic or even at talent shows.

I'd transcribe their writing when they couldn't spell and help them put their sentences together. I helped them write to their case workers and advocate for their needs.

I think I'd love to be able to do that for everyone. If full communism happens, that's what I would love to do every day for the rest of my life.

What about the rest of you? Is there something you'd be able to talk about enough as a teacher? It doesn't have to be something like literal education. I know people around here really know theory, or genres of music or games, or history. What would you want to share with the world?

    Feel like all I'd be able to do is teach how to draw lol, I had an anatomy teacher who always said anyone can draw. And then I saw it with my own eyes, some classmates who could bearly draw a stick figure went on to being able to make some decent skeletons by the end of 9 weeks ish. I'd like to spread the knowledge and encourage others too. The ability to draw can be taught.
