The two sentences below have the same meaning-the repeated action of teaching math lasted for 30 years until she retired.
The second sentence is better than the first one.
Is my understanding correct?
1. By the time she retired, she had taught math for 30 years.
2. By the time she retired, she had been teaching math for 30 years.
