The crudest thing I’ve done as a teacher was to require students to write a national anthem for their country and sing it themselves.
If you don’t have a teacher you can’t have a disciple.
I started writing stories when I was six years old. I was a very shy kid, extremely shy, and I had a fabulous first-grade teacher who told me to write.
I believe that the testing of the student’s achievements in order to see if he meets some criterion held by the teacher, is directly contrary to the implications of therapy for significant learning.
My main language was music, and my teacher was nature.
All I wanted was to be a university teacher.
I was in three academic clubs, a huge book worm and the teacher’s pet. I was kind of an easy target for bullies.
My dad always told me to stand up to bullies, and Bill O’Reilly is kind of a bully, and he’s the kind of kid who hits other kids on the playground. And when you hit him, he runs to the teacher and says, ‘Teacher, sue him.’
Coach Dyer was a great mentor for me and a great teacher.
Charming women can true converts make, We love the precepts for the teacher’s sake.
My last name is Taylor. So in school, every time we got a project, I’m at the end. So I get to see the whole class do their project. Then, when it comes time to do mine, of course I’d pass, and the teacher wouldn’t have too many questions.
I really did grow up in a world where we were taught that crime doesn’t pay and we stood up when the teacher came into the room.
I have taught some master classes and things at my alma mater and sometimes at my kids’ school. I will go in and talk to the theater students. I wouldn’t really call myself a teacher.
My first career was as a coach and a teacher.
As a student I learned from wonderful teachers and ever since then I’ve thought everyone is a teacher.
My mom was my rock, my confidant and my best friend. She was an elementary school teacher who worked with students with disabilities and she lived every day giving back to her family and her community.
My primary school teacher once poured a bottle of curdled school milk forcefully down my throat. Then I threw it up all over her suede shoes. I’d rather have drunk from the spittoon in Barney’s barber shop.
I started out as a high school teacher in inner-city Chicago and realized quite quickly that my students weren’t that motivated.
I remember I used to come up to my teacher crying because I couldn’t read. She would say: ‘You can do this. You just don’t want to do this.’
My acting teacher in high school was really influential, and we still keep in touch.
My mom is an art teacher and is very much into the performing arts. What can I say? She is the female in my life and has guided me on how to act and conduct myself. A lot of my strength comes from her.
We can not wait until we have enough trained people willing to work at a teacher’s salary and under conditions imposed upon teachers in order to improve what happens in the classroom.
I had a basic plan for my life. The plan was – 20s: make money; 30s: have family; and 40s: run for something and do politics. When I retired, I wanted to be a teacher.
I feel blessed. I never wanted to be an actor. It just happened all by chance and fate. I was studying to be a teacher.
I could never have pictured myself writing a book when I was 25 years old. My mom was an English teacher but I wasn’t that way growing up.
