I have learned that, although I am a good teacher, I am a much better student, and I was blessed to learn valuable lessons from my students on a daily basis. They taught me the importance of teaching to a student - and not to a test.
When you're one of the leaders of the team, there are no days off.
You have to believe in your process. You have to believe in the things that you are doing to help the team win. I think you have to take the good with the bad.
It is hardly an exaggeration to say that oral teachers and sign teachers found it difficult to sit down in the same room without quarreling, and there was intolerance upon both sides. To say 'oral method' to a sign teacher was like waving a red flag in the face of a bull, and to say 'sign language' to an oralist aroused the deepest resentment.
The funniest memory that I can recall about my school days has to be one incident that involved unfinished homework for numerous days. I didn't do any of my homework for days and days at a stretch, and kept stalling my teacher that I was extremely unwell and was under heavy medication.
I just love working hard. I love being part of a team; I love working toward a common goal.
It's the steady, quiet, plodding ones who win in the lifelong race.
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.
Education must not simply teach work - it must teach Life.
There is no 'i' in team but there is in win.
We cannot teach people anything; we can only help them discover it within themselves.
There is no employing class, no working class, no farming class. You may pigeonhole a man or woman as a farmer or a worker or a professional man or an employer or even a banker. But the son of the farmer will be a doctor or a worker or even a banker, and his daughter a teacher. The son of a worker will be an employer - or maybe president.
It always feels nice to be associated with a team you share a great bond with.
A good teacher who can take the zero pay and help kids develop physically, emotionally, socially, is literally an angel.
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.
Good teachers know how to bring out the best in students.
Tea time is a chance to slow down, pull back and appreciate our surroundings.
Where there's tea there's hope.
Come, let us have some tea and continue to talk about happy things.
I had one companion. He was a teacher from the Ukraine who spoke English so we could communicate a bit. I learnt a few Russian words, but it was hard to concentrate.
