Everybody knows that a teacher’s career isn’t easy, especially if money is short – but when a classroom of sweet students came up with a solution for their teacher’s financial problems, the result was priceless.

Middle school teacher Bruno Rafael Paiva from Brejo Santo, Brazil recently started his dream job of being an educator. As he expected, the work was difficult because of student behavior, low wages, and long hours. But everything was made even more grueling by the fact that his first salary was delayed for over two months.

After the second month, his financial condition worsened until he was forced to sleep on his friend’s couch.

“Teacher life is not easy,” Paiva wrote on Facebook. “When I saw that I was not going to receive a month and a half’s salary, I saw everything going black. I sank into depression, worried and lost, without knowing how to pay the bills and help my family.”
