Quotes by Teaching ...it is the greatest achievement of a teacher to enable his students to surpass him. John G. Kemeny teachingmathteacher Teaching can be compared to selling commodities. No one can sell unless someone buys ... yet there are teachers who think they have done a good day's teaching irrespective of what the pupils have learned. John Dewey good-dayteachingteacher Actually, on a slightly more serious but kind of parallel level, I remember being on Loveline before both hosts ascended into loftier places in the culture. But I remember being shocked by Dr. Drew. He went into this extended monologue about how anyone with a baby voice is probably the victim of child abuse or has some daddy issue. As an intellectually curious person, all I could think is that there isn't any clinical evidence about that. But to be the guy wearing the doctor's hat on the radio and teaching everybody about this? It just seemed like a parody of good advice. John Flansburgh teachingbabychildren Experiences in order to be educative must lead out into an expanding world of subject matter, a subject matter of facts or information and of ideas.

John Dewey teachingviewseducation Not only does social life demand teaching and learning for its own permanence, but the very process of living together educates. It enlarges and enlightens experience; it stimulates and enriches imagination; it creates responsibility for accuracy and vividness of statement and thought. John Dewey imaginationresponsibilityteaching The Civic University operates on a global scale but uses its location to form its identity. John Goddard learningtechnologyteaching A teacher's failure to create an intellectually reflective, engagement for learning is not simply malpractice but it is immoral particularly for students who cannot withdraw. John Goodlad learningteachingteacher Any genuine teaching will result, if successful, in someone's knowing how to bring about a better condition of things than existed earlier. John Dewey successfulteachingteacher Again, men tell us that our preaching should be positive and not negative, that we can preach the truth without attacking error. But if we follow that advice we shall have to close our Bible and desert its teachings. The New Testament is a polemic book almost from beginning to end ... It is when men have felt compelled to take a stand against error that they have risen to the really great heights in the celebration of the truth John Gresham Machen teachingmenbook If true religion is to beam upon us, our principle must be, that it is necessary to begin with heavenly teaching, and that it is impossible for any man to obtain even the minutest portion of right and sound doctrine without being a disciple of Scripture. John Calvin scriptureteachingmen I believe God wants you to have money to pay your bills, send your kids to college and do charity work and build orphanages. There's the teaching that we're supposed to be poor to show that we're humble. I don't buy that. I think we're supposed to be leaders. We're supposed to excel. Joel Osteen teachinghumblebelieve That education is not an affair of "telling" and being told, but an active and constructive process, is a principle almost as generally violated in practice as conceded in theory. Is not this deplorable situation due to the fact that the doctrine is itself merely told? It is preached; it is lectured; it is written about. John Dewey teachingpracticeteacher The teacher should use illustrations for the better teaching of the lesson, and never to fill up time, to amuse the class, or to display his own genius. John H. Vincent illustrationteachingteacher We are never deceived; we deceive ourselves.

Kennedy teachingeducationinspirational A good teacher, like a good entertainer first must hold his audience's attention, then he can teach his lesson. John Henrik Clarke teachingeducationteacher I live near Amish communities in northern Indiana and I have the greatest respect for such faithful people. They attempt to live their faith more fully by separating themselves, as far as possible, from the wider culture and its influences. That has never been the teaching of the Catholic faith. John I.
