Teaching Elders

Famous quotes containing the words teaching and/or elders:

    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)

    I came there as prime steak and now I feel like low-grade hamburger.
    —Joycelyn Elders (b. 1933)
