When you hear success stories of underprivileged children being exposed "to the wide world around them" that is "beyond the bubble" the focus is on the student. There is no talk of the teachers coming out of their bubble, and in effect we are never sure what students are being liberated from. People are always quick to label others but not evaluate themselves. Let me let the student out of their bubble and introduce them to MY world. But what about their worl..oh wait.

Also in this article it is mentioned that one of the main difficulties in teaching is understanding people. To reach this goal, and to truly know our students, we must reach out to them, and dissolve that barrier.
