"Teachers are trying to do so many things. And so to have a partner, who's there with you, who wants to give you materials, who wants to come in and give you feedback, who wants to set out a plan together and work towards a goal, who has a framework for inquiry-based learning, which we can all talk about and say is important, but it's so hard to execute."
