Famous quotes containing the word teaching:

    “For good teaching rests neither in accumulating a shelfful of knowledge nor in developing a repertoire of skills. In the end, good teaching lies in a willingness to attend and care for what happens in our students, ourselves, and the space between us. Good teaching is a certain kind of stance, I think. It is a stance of receptivity, of attunement, of listening.”
    —Laurent A. Daloz (20th century)

    “It may be that through habit these do best,
    Coming to water clumsily undressed
    Yearly; teaching their children by a sort
    Of clowning; helping the old, too, as they ought.”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    “May my teaching drop like the rain, my speech condense like the dew; like gentle rain on grass, like showers on new growth.”
    —Bible: Hebrew, Deuteronomy 32:2.
