Your worst enemy can be your best teacher! ~ Mehmet Murat Ildan
Best Teachers quotes by Mehmet Murat Ildan
The best teachers are the best storytellers. ~ Frank Smith
Best Teachers quotes by Frank Smith
I think the best teachers had a real interest in the subject they were teaching and a love for children. Some of the teachers were just doing their job, but others had that little extra. They really cared about children and they wore pretty dresses. ~ Beverly Cleary
Best Teachers quotes by Beverly Cleary
Kids' views are often just as valid as the teachers'. The best teachers are the ones that know that. ~ Morley Safer
Best Teachers quotes by Morley Safer
It must be confessed that the English gentleman, especially if he be devoted to field and other sports, is apt to attribute slight importance to mental felicity or learning. I happen to enjoy the system, having suffered much on the continent from people who pretend to be intellectuals when they are not. Yet it is undeniable that a type of civility that excludes or misprises the humanities compares ill with the ideal of the perfectly endowed and developed human being which the Greeks and the best teachers of the Renaissance held as examples for emulation. ~ Harold Nicolson
Best Teachers quotes by Harold Nicolson
The best teachers, one hopes, don't shout at their students - because they are skilled at wooing as well as demanding the best efforts of others. For the ancient Greeks and Romans, this wooing was a sufficiently fine art in itself to be the central focus of education. ~ Tom Chatfield
Best Teachers quotes by Tom Chatfield
I suggest that this is a good time to think soberly about our responsibilities to our descendents - those who will ring out the Fossil Fuel Age. Our greatest responsibility, as parents and as citizens, is to give America's youngsters the best possible education. We need the best teachers and enough of them to prepare our young people for a future immeasurably more complex than the present, and calling for ever larger numbers of competent and highly trained men and women. ~ Hyman Rickover
Best Teachers quotes by Hyman Rickover
Songs are your best teachers. I try to learn something from every song I hear ~ Pat Pattison
Best Teachers quotes by Pat Pattison
Simply put, the best teachers are the ones you work your tail off for because in the end you just don't want them to think any less of you. You want and need their approval. ~ Taylor Mali
Best Teachers quotes by Taylor Mali
Mistakes are often the best teachers. ~ James Anthony Froude
Best Teachers quotes by James Anthony Froude
I trained and worked really hard all my life in dance classes. I always fell into the shadows of my mother, and it was hard for me to really realize that I had done the work. Yes, she took me to the best teachers, but I did the work. ~ Vivian Nixon
Best Teachers quotes by Vivian Nixon
Our guides, we pretend, must be sinless: as if those were not often the best teachers who only yesterday got corrected for their mistakes. ~ George Eliot
Best Teachers quotes by George Eliot
I find mistakes are often our best teachers. Consequences leave a more lasting impression than a mere lecture, don't you think?" "Yes, sir. Just lectures don't usually hurt as much. Except for those history lectures. They were pretty hard to endure. ~ Jackie Castle
Best Teachers quotes by Jackie Castle
The best teachers become the best teachers by being their own best students. ~ Laurie Gray
Best Teachers quotes by Laurie Gray
To write well it is entirely necessary to read widely and deeply. Good poems are the best teachers. ~ Mary Oliver
Best Teachers quotes by Mary Oliver
The best teachers are those who keep students motivated, challenged and flourishing. ~ John Kline
Best Teachers quotes by John Kline
Quiet the noise around you; soften its pitch. Our deepest stories are our best teachers. Let the weapons of the weak - the poison, the nagging, the gossip - burn themselves to ash. Cast them to the wind. Take back the permission to succeed. Make it yours. ~ Elissa Altman
Best Teachers quotes by Elissa Altman
Injuries are our best teachers. ~ Scott Jurek
Best Teachers quotes by Scott Jurek
The best evangelists, the best preachers, the best teachers are desperate people. ~ Tullian Tchividjian
Best Teachers quotes by Tullian Tchividjian
My best teachers were mess, failure, death, mistakes, and the people I hated, including myself. ~ Anne Lamott
Best Teachers quotes by Anne Lamott
The best teachers have shown me that things have to be done bit by bit. Nothing that means anything happens quickly - we only think it does. ~ Joseph Bruchac
Best Teachers quotes by Joseph Bruchac
A Warrior knows that his best teachers are the people whom he shares the battlefield. ~ Paulo Coelho
Best Teachers quotes by Paulo Coelho
We have seen that, in another unfunded mandate, the so-called No Child Left Behind Act, which created tougher standards, and we all support that, but Congress did not provide the money to attract and hire the best teachers. ~ Bob Filner
Best Teachers quotes by Bob Filner
Be bold. Be brave. Let go of what is safe and familiar and search out what is new … find the best teachers here and take the most interesting courses, even if they are tough.

Advice from Susan Schmidt MBC Class of 1975 when she delivered the college's Founders Day address ~ Susan Schmidt
Best Teachers quotes by Susan Schmidt
If teaching isn't rewarding and challenging, we're going to continue to lose our best teachers to work in other fields. ~ Michael Bennet
Best Teachers quotes by Michael Bennet
The best teachers of humanity are the lives of great men. ~ Charles Henry Fowler
Best Teachers quotes by Charles Henry Fowler
Positive energy brings good feelings, and dark energy often means harm. But the destruction in dark energy is also a subtle aspect of construction, like how even forest fires have their benefits. Sometimes enemies are our best teachers, people can learn from their mistakes, destruction sometimes means rebirth. ~ Keanu Reeves
Best Teachers quotes by Keanu Reeves
Our best teachers do more than impart facts and figures - they inspire and encourage students and instill a true desire to learn. That's a fine art in itself. ~ Sonny Perdue
Best Teachers quotes by Sonny Perdue
The best teachers that I had were always the ones I never wanted to disappoint. ~ Taylor Mali
Best Teachers quotes by Taylor Mali
Books tap the wisdom of our species
the greatest minds, the best teachers
from all over the world and from all our history. And they're patient. ~ Carl Sagan
Best Teachers quotes by Carl Sagan
to teach is the best way to learn, but that the imperfect are the best teachers of the imperfect. ~ George MacDonald
Best Teachers quotes by George MacDonald
I get wonderful letters from kids and teachers. I must have the best readers in the world. ~ Andrew Clements
Best Teachers quotes by Andrew Clements
Mistakes in judgment are the best teachers in the world, and if you choose to learn from them then you will begin to trust yourself and understand that, correct or incorrect you were decisive and moved on. ~ Jeffrey Gitomer
Best Teachers quotes by Jeffrey Gitomer
Books, purchasable at low cost, permit us to interrogate the past with high accuracy; to tap the wisdom of our species; to understand the point of view of others, and not just those in power; to contemplate
with the best teachers
the insights, painfully extracted from Nature, of the greatest minds that ever were, drawn from the entire planet and from all of our history. They allow people long dead to talk inside our heads. Books can accompany us everywhere. Books are patient where we are slow to understand, allow us to go over the hard parts as many times as we wish, and are never critical of our lapses. Books are key to understanding the world and participating in a democratic society. ~ Carl Sagan
Best Teachers quotes by Carl Sagan
I have not seen that standardised tests make the profession less attractive, though some principals respond to them in a way that drives the best teachers out of their schools (by over-emphasising test prep in the school curriculum for example). On the other hand, great teachers want benchmarks to measure progress and tests can help with that. ~ Wendy Kopp
Best Teachers quotes by Wendy Kopp
Books permit us to voyage through time, to tap the wisdom of our ancestors. The library connects us with the insight and knowledge, painfully extracted from Nature, of the greatest minds that ever were, with the best teachers, drawn from the entire planet and from all our history, to instruct us without tiring, and to inspire us to make our own contribution to the collective knowledge of the human species. I think the health of our civilization, the depth of our awareness about the underpinnings of our culture and our concern for the future can all be tested by how well we support our libraries. ~ Carl Sagan
Best Teachers quotes by Carl Sagan
To benefit from what the best teachers do, however, we must embrace a different model, one in which teaching occurs only when learning takes place. Most fundamentally, teaching in this conception is creating those conditions in which most
if not all
of our students will realize their potential to learn. That sounds like hard work, and it is a little scary because we don't have complete control over who we are, but it is highly rewarding and obtainable. ~ Ken Bain
Best Teachers quotes by Ken Bain
Growing up, I had a singing teacher who was an amazing champion of mine who helped build up my confidence, and I also count my therapist as one of the best teachers that I've ever had. ~ Gideon Glick
Best Teachers quotes by Gideon Glick
Instruction does not prevent wasted time or mistakes; and mistakes themselves are often the best teachers of all. ~ James Anthony Froude
Best Teachers quotes by James Anthony Froude
Mistakes are the best teachers. One does not learn from success. It is desirable to learn vicariously from other people's failures, but it gets much more firmly seared in when they are your own. ~ Mohnish Pabrai
Best Teachers quotes by Mohnish Pabrai
It is vital that teachers can be paid more without having to leave the classroom. This will be particularly important to schools in the most disadvantaged areas as it will empower them to attract and recruit the best teachers. ~ Michael Gove
Best Teachers quotes by Michael Gove
I love to thik of my little children whom God has called to himself as away at school-at the best school in the universe, under the best teachers, learning the best things, in the best possible manner. O death! We thank thee for the light that thou wilt shed upon our ignorance. ~ Jacques-Benigne Bossuet
Best Teachers quotes by Jacques-Benigne Bossuet
My mistakes have been some of the best teachers of my life. ~ Kelly Cutrone
Best Teachers quotes by Kelly Cutrone
The best teachers are those that can influence even the poorest of all learners. ~ Kim Panti
Best Teachers quotes by Kim Panti
The best teachers coach their students and the best coaches are great teachers. ~ Grant Teaff
Best Teachers quotes by Grant Teaff
The best teachers are those who show you where to look, but don't tell you what to see. ~ Alexandra K.Trenfor
Best Teachers quotes by Alexandra K.Trenfor
Yes, I think you'll find that all the best teachers are old bats. ~ Richard Peck
Best Teachers quotes by Richard Peck
Good teachers are informers, Better teachers are instructors, Best teachers are inspirers. ~ Brittolourdes
Best Teachers quotes by Brittolourdes
The Best Teachers teach from the heart and not from the Book ~ Annonimous
Best Teachers quotes by Annonimous
I've been wondering if in fact ideal platonic love isn't just an intensely concentrated form of what inspires the best teachers. ~ Edmund Marlowe
Best Teachers quotes by Edmund Marlowe
Simply put, the best teachers believe that learning involves both personal and intellectual development and that neither the ability to think nor the qualities of being a mature human are immutable. People can change, and those changes
not just the accumulation of information
represent true learning. ~ Ken Bain
Best Teachers quotes by Ken Bain
The best teachers don't allow their own personal views to influence their teaching. ~ Amos Bronson Alcott
Best Teachers quotes by Amos Bronson Alcott
The Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith" (1 Timothy 4:1). "The time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires . . . they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables" (2 Timothy 4:3-4). ~ David Jeremiah
Best Teachers quotes by David Jeremiah
I am confident that the vast majority of teachers will work with us towards achieving that goal. ~ Estelle Morris
Best Teachers quotes by Estelle Morris
There are better ways we can transform this virulent hatred - by living our ideals, the Peace Corps, exchange students, teachers, exporting our music, poetry, blue jeans. ~ Helen Thomas
Best Teachers quotes by Helen Thomas
At school I was always trying to con my teachers into letting me act out book reports instead of writing them. ~ Laura Linney
Best Teachers quotes by Laura Linney
We dole out lip-service to the importance of education - lip-service and, just occasionally, a little grant of money; we postpone the school-leaving age, and plan to build bigger and better schools; the teachers slave conscientiously in and out of school hours; and yet, as I believe, all this devoted effort is largely frustrated, because we have lost the tools of learning, and in their absence can only make a botched and piecemeal job of it. ~ Dorothy L. Sayers
Best Teachers quotes by Dorothy L. Sayers
In the mainstream of evangelicalism, where female senior pastors were often unwelcome, most leaders and laypeople had adopted the conservative Reformed view of gender and had forgotten (or never knew of) women's leadership in the moral crusades of the nineteenth century, or even their prominence as Bible teachers, relief workers, and missionaries prior to the 1930s. ~ Molly Worthen
Best Teachers quotes by Molly Worthen
Brothers and sisters, one of the great consolations of this Easter season is that because Jesus walked such a long, lonely path utterly alone, we do not have to do so. His solitary journey brought great company for our little version of that path - the merciful care of our Father in Heaven, the unfailing companionship of this Beloved Son, the consummate gift of the Holy Ghost, angels in heaven family members on both sides of the veil, prophets and apostles, teachers, leaders, friends. All of these and more have been given as companions for our mortal journey because of the Atonement of Jesus Christ and the Restoration of His gospel. Trumpeted from the summit of Calvary is the truth that we will never be left alone nor unaided, even sometimes we may feel that we are. Truly the Redeemer of us all said: "I will not leave you comfortless: [My Father and] I will come to you [and abide with you]. ~ Jeffrey R. Holland
Best Teachers quotes by Jeffrey R. Holland
In the history of everyone in whom the artist-within has survived conditioning, schooling, training - there are (persons) influences that have kept him alive, awake .. who have encouraged him without even trying - just by being. They have been One's real teachers. ~ Frederick Franck
Best Teachers quotes by Frederick Franck
The teachers introduced a program that explicitly trained the students to construct coherent arguments, with a focus on the connections between successive ideas. It was a radical shift from the kind of assignment that dominates high school writing instruction today, in which students are asked to write memoirs and personal reflections. The students showed dramatic improvements in their test scores in several subjects, and many more of them graduated from high school and applied to college. It's no coincidence that ~ Steven Pinker
Best Teachers quotes by Steven Pinker
Teachers open the door. You enter by yourself - Chinese proverb ~ Colleen Collins
Best Teachers quotes by Colleen Collins
This planet is a divine school, and daily life a classroom. Our choice of teachers depends on what we need to learn. ~ Dan Millman
Best Teachers quotes by Dan Millman
In my ten years of teaching I've noticed that teachers tend to have a bad habit of talking to themselves. I hypothesize that this is because we talk for a living, and we feel safe speaking our feelings aloud. Or it could be that most of us, especially the high school teacher variety, are just weird as shit. ~ P.C. Cast
Best Teachers quotes by P.C. Cast
Elephants are living treasures. Nature's gardeners. Nature's great teachers. Tragically some people don't give a damn. They prefer the dead treasure to the living one. The ivory. We must challenge this so-called 'trade' with all our might and shame on those who would condone it. ~ Virginia McKenna
Best Teachers quotes by Virginia McKenna
The teacher's role in discussion is to keep it going along fruitful lines - be moderating, guiding, correcting and arguing like one more students. ~ Mortimer Adler
Best Teachers quotes by Mortimer Adler
They were like English teachers who took the fun out of a perfectly good book by breaking it down into themes and sentence structures ~ Tawni O'Dell
Best Teachers quotes by Tawni O'Dell
I became really creative around the time I started understanding that people could be creative with music and that that was allowed. I stated taking piano lessons at age five, but I never did what my piano teacher told me to do. I would just do whatever I wanted. ~ Michael Angelakos
Best Teachers quotes by Michael Angelakos
He told me that he thinks he and the other proven directors have a responsibility to be teachers - that this should be a central part of their jobs, even as they continue to make their own films. ~ Ed Catmull
Best Teachers quotes by Ed Catmull
Your parents, your friends, your enemies politicians and teachers - all these voices will try to speak for you. Sometimes, it seems easier to let them. But then, you've lost more than your voice. You've lost yourself. ~ Amy Fellner Dominy
Best Teachers quotes by Amy Fellner Dominy
Teaching might even be the greatest of the arts since the medium is the human mind and spirit. My three [great teachers] did not tell - they catalyzed a burning desire to know. Under their influence, the horizons sprung wide and fear went away and the unknown became knowable. But most important of all, the truth, that dangerous stuff, became beautiful and very precious. ~ John Steinbeck
Best Teachers quotes by John Steinbeck
Any day you had gym class was a weird school day. It started off normal. You had English, Social Studies, Geometry, then suddenly your in Lord of the Flies for 40 minutes. Your hanging from a rope, you have hardly any clothes on, teachers are yelling at you, kids are throwing dodge balls at you and snapping towels - you're trying to survive. And then it's Science,Language, and History. Now that is a weird day. ~ Jerry Seinfeld
Best Teachers quotes by Jerry Seinfeld
History, the way the teachers liked it, was a racetrack, a straight shot from start to finish line; life itself was more of a maze. ~ Cassandra Clare
Best Teachers quotes by Cassandra Clare
Imparting education not only enlightens the receiver, but also broadens the giver - the teachers, the parents, the friends. ~ Amartya Sen
Best Teachers quotes by Amartya Sen
Moore's only concession to the Democrats' role-playing is to deny that he is a Democrat, hoping enough Americans were taught by public school teachers that no one will know how to look up Moore's voter registration card. Democrat. ~ Ann Coulter
Best Teachers quotes by Ann Coulter
There's no word in the language I revere more than 'teacher.' My heart sings when a kid refers to me as his teacher, and it always has. I've honored myself and the entire family of man by becoming a teacher. ~ Pat Conroy
Best Teachers quotes by Pat Conroy
Parents matter, buildings count, curriculum choices, materials, resources - all these things are important in a top-class education. But, in the end, it comes down to the teachers. ~ Kimberly Quinn
Best Teachers quotes by Kimberly Quinn
By the time they're in college, it's gone too far. They've had twelve years without disciplined learning and they don't know how to apply themselves. They haven't learned to study or to pace their work so that projects get completed on time. They fall asleep in lectures because they expect to be entertained not educated. ~ Lois Duncan
Best Teachers quotes by Lois Duncan
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. ~ William Glasser
Best Teachers quotes by William Glasser
Here's what I think: when you're born, you're assigned a brain like you're assigned a desk, a nice desk, with plenty of pigeonholes and drawers and secret compartments. At the start, it's empty, and then you spend your life filling it up. You're the only one who understands the filing system, you amass some clutter, sure, but somehow it works: you're asked the capital of Oregon, and you say Salem; you want to remember your first-grade teacher's name, and there it is, Miss Fox. Then suddenly you're old, and though everything's still in your brain, it's crammed so tight that when you try to remember the name of the guy who does the upkeep on your lawn, your first childhood crush comes fluttering out, or the persistent smell of tomato soup in a certain Des Moines neighborhood. ~ Elizabeth McCracken
Best Teachers quotes by Elizabeth McCracken
The one Spirit of life is given different names, the sacred names. We more easily recognize the Spirit of life by the particular name to which we are accustomed. So far we are right, but the mistake we make, and it is to our loss, is to ignore or deny the same truth because it is given to us in another form and under another name. We limit it. We say the truth existed only in that period when certain teachers came to the world, and that after that it stopped. ~ Hazrat Inayat Khan
Best Teachers quotes by Hazrat Inayat Khan
Teachers are the most unpredictable creatures on earth. Maybe this time they'll be unpredictable in the right direction for a change. ~ Anne Frank
Best Teachers quotes by Anne Frank
But in the book," I say, "the mockingbird is supposed to be a symbol of innocence. That's why it's a sin to kill one."
"Who says it's a symbol of innocence?" asks Mort.
"Teachers," I tell him. "Book reviewers, critics --"
"Wikipedia," Elena calls from behind the window display. ~ Paul Acampora
Best Teachers quotes by Paul Acampora
For Christians to influence the world with the truth of God's Word requires the recovery of the great Reformation doctrine of vocation. Christians are called to God's service not only in church professions but also in every secular calling. The task of restoring truth to the culture depends largely on our laypeople.

To bring back truth, on a practical level, the church must encourage Christians to be not merely consumers of culture but makers of culture. The church needs to cultivate Christian artists, musicians, novelists, filmmakers, journalists, attorneys, teachers, scientists, business executives, and the like, teaching its laypeople the sense in which every secular vocation-including, above all, the callings of husband, wife, and parent--is a sphere of Christian ministry, a way of serving God and neighbor that is grounded in God's truth. Christian laypeople must be encouraged to be leaders in their fields, rather than eager-to-please followers, working from the assumptions of their biblical worldview, not the vapid clichés of pop culture. ~ J. Gresham Machen
