children lying teaching
The answer lies in preventing failures not in looking for better ways to fix the children who are failing.
teacher intellectual friendly
Every single major push in education has made it worse and right now it's really bad because everything we've done is de-humanizing education. It's destroying the possibility of the teacher and the student having a warm, friendly, intellectual relationship.
teacher book communication
The Compassionate Classroom is a fabulous book! If teachers will read it, they can transform their classrooms.
teacher book teaching
In a Glasser Quality School there is no such thing as a closed book test. Students are told to get out their notes and open their books. There is no such thing as being forbidden to ask the teacher or another student for help.
teaching test-scores tests
If you improve education by teaching for competence, eliminating schooling, and connecting with students, the test scores will improve.
teacher school agreement
If we had in this room a hundred teachers, good teachers from good schools, and asked them to define the word education, there would be very little general agreement.
teacher school years
We can pay teachers a hundred thousand dollars a year, and we'll do nothing to improve our schools as long as we keep the A, B, C, D, F grading system.
teacher interesting-conversation perspective
Prior to being allowed to enter the profession, prospective teachers should be asked to talk with a group of friendly students for at least half an hour and be able to engage them in an interesting conversation about any subject the prospective teacher wants to talk about.
teacher school talking
What students lack in school is an intellectual relationship or conversation with the teacher.
teacher jobs teaching
Effective teaching may be the hardest job there is.
teacher retirement talking
We can teach a lot of things, but if the teacher can't relate by talking to a group of friendly students, he'll never be a competent teacher.
inspirational teacher teaching
When you study great teachers... you will learn much more from their caring and hard work than from their style.
teacher heart thinking
This is at the heart of all good education, where the teacher asks students to think and engages them in encouraging dialogues, constantly checking for understanding and growth.
