And I see smug, self-satisfied cultural-appropriator S/F never left it. I won't comment on your poorly constructed argument--others below have done so, but I will observe that in my experience, teachers who trumpet how "inspiring" they are usually anything but. Their colleagues roll their eyes, their students figure out how parrot back what they want to hear, and they bask in their vanity. Truly inspiring teachers just go about their work nd don't feel the need to self-validate to everyone in hearing distance. It's tiresome.

"Inspiring" can also mean full of hot air. I stand by my statement.

Dear God. Nothing wrong with being proud of the work you do. If S/F says he’s an inspiring teacher, I respect his word. Why shouldn’t you?
