Primary school teacher/artist from Galway, Ireland, Colm Coffe creates a weekly comic strip that tells the life of a teacher. It’s called “When’s it Hometime?” and it’s scary how accurate it is with the daily trials and tribulations of a teacher. It just goes to show, that the teacher struggle is universal around the world!
