I was wrong. That first week, I kept mocking him. He hauled me out to the hallway and said I’d better shape up. “Tamara,” he said, “you’re a smart kid. You can do better.”

Speaker 1 A teacher has two jobs; fill young minds with knowledge, yes, but more importantly, give those minds a compass so that their knowledge doesn’t go to waste. Speaker 2 The whole art of teaching is only the art of awakening the natural curiosity of young minds for the purpose of satisfying it after. Speaker 3 The art of teaching is also the art of inspiring. It has been said that “the mediocre teacher tells, the good one explains, the superior one shows, the great one inspires.” Speaker 4 I never teach my pupils. I only attempt to provide the conditions in which they can learn.
