For Nigerian math teacher Michael Thompson, who has a physical disability that requires him to use crutches, educating the students he encounters every year in Nigeria is his most important goal. So when he arrived to teach at one particular school where the students wanted to mock his disability, he changed up his perspective and teaching methods—and not only helped them learn math but helped them to be better people as well.
He shared his story on social media, where he’s gone viral for his valuable message about making sure that the students are the most important part of his day.
