Prompt: Day 7 - "Passion" for halfamoon
Word count: 100

*
Cherilee professes you need passion to teach. Not just a sense of duty but a real drive.
Her Cutie Mark, three smiles, doesn’t match teaching very well at first glance: why not books, or a ruler? but to her it’s self-evident: her life-call is the bettering and happiness of her little pupils. That with her they don’t just learn by rote, like it’s a chore, but really understand their lessons, and get why it’ll help them later in life, and like it along the way.
Not many people get that, but Twilight would have loved such a teacher to bits.

This is lovely, and so true of a good teacher!

Thanks! I wasn't so sure of Cherilee's in-canon explanation about her Cutie Mark, but if I can make it work anyway...
