Teacher
It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge.
The greatest sign of success for a teacher is to be able to say, 'The children are now working as if I did not exist'.
Jesus isn't lettin' you off the hook. The Scriptures don't let you off the hook so easily... When people say, you know, 'Good teacher', 'Prophet', 'Really nice guy' ... this is not how Jesus thought of Himself.
My sister and I cooked a lot together; my sister was a very healthy vegetarian. She was always a real good teacher for me about organics, recycling, composting -whenever you hear me talk about it, it's usually because of my sister's influence.
Nearly everyone I met, worked with, or read about was my teacher, one way or another.
To be successful in anything, you have to have a passion for it, and that leads to being enthusiastic and demanding. I didn't have it for history. So I wouldn't have been a good teacher in that area. But I had it for basketball. And that's what coaching is at every level: it's about teaching.
A good teacher can inspire hope, ignite the imagination, and instill a love of learning.
A good teacher is a determined person.
A good teacher, like a good entertainer first must hold his audience's attention, then he can teach his lesson.
I am a teacher. It's how I define myself. A good teacher isn't someone who gives the answers out to their kids but is understanding of needs and challenges and gives tools to help other people succeed. That's the way I see myself, so whatever it is that I will do eventually after politics, it'll have to do a lot with teaching.
Of all the hard jobs around, one of the hardest is being a good teacher.
Let us remember: One book, one pen, one child, and one teacher can change the world.
Success is not a good teacher, failure makes you humble.
Mama was my greatest teacher, a teacher of compassion, love and fearlessness. If love is sweet as a flower, then my mother is that sweet flower of love.
The mediocre teacher tells. The good teacher explains. The superior teacher demonstrates. The great teacher inspires.
When people say, you know, 'Good teacher', 'Prophet', 'Really nice guy'... this is not how Jesus thought of Himself. So you're left with a challenge in that, which is either Jesus was who he said he was or a complete and utter nut case. You have to make a choice on that.
A word of encouragement from a teacher to a child can change a life. A word of encouragement from a spouse can save a marriage. A word of encouragement from a leader can inspire a person to reach her potential.
Technology is just a tool. In terms of getting the kids working together and motivating them, the teacher is the most important.
I cannot emphasize enough the importance of a good teacher.
Read something of interest every day — something of interest to you, not to your teacher or your best friend or your minister/rabbi/priest. Comics count. So does poetry. So do editorials in your school newspaper. Or a biography of a rock star. Or an instructional manual. Or the Bible.
