I think snug misses the point of what it means to be a good teacher. At least the way I see it, you shouldn't be teaching just to get a thank you at the end. After all, your main goal is to simply teach students, and help them out. If all you're after is gratification, you're actually a pretty mediocre teacher. Again, this is all just my opinion. But teachers are supposed to just teach for the sake of making the community more knowledgable, not because they want some appreciation for their efforts.
