Learning The Hard Way

Anyone who teaches
that solo experience is not the best teacher
is not the best teacher.

Solo experience
now and then teaches the hard way,
but the hard way is the unforgettable way.

Open The Doors Of Perception

Educators have not only an opportunity
but an obligation to open the ‘doors of perception’ for all students.
The enduring purpose of education
is to provide students with a perception
of the outer reaches of their talents and possibilities
and, ideally, to give them a reason to continue to learn
and contribute to their society for all of their lives.
~ Bernice Bleedorn

You Can't Teach What You Don't Know

You can't no more teach
what you don't know,
than come back from where you ain't been.
