“In order to be a teacher you've got to be a student first”
“Respect is not the equivalent to 'liking' a student or teacher; it is the ability to have a high regard for the role of another. In order to receive respect, we should demonstrate it first...”
“I don't care who the student is, teachers should never be condescending. That should be the first rule in the teacher handbook.”
“It felt like we were reliving the first day of the school year, when students and teachers do the get-to-know-you dance—teachers tell students something about who they are, students pretend to care, and then vice-versa.”
“If you are a student, try to be a teacher; if you are a teacher, try to be a student!”
“A Teacher is no good without the student and the student is no good without the teacher.”
