  • Fear that professional judgment will be impaired by emotions

  • Professionals must learn to protect themselves against the burnout that may result from feeling too much for one’s students. It has become a mark of professionalism to be detached, cool and dispassionate

  • “Why would a student be penalized for not learning something on the first attempt?”
