I feel that these quotes represent the way I feel about a teacher’s role in education.

 

 

“It must be remembered that the purpose of education is not to fill the minds of students with facts... it is to teach them to think, if that is possible, and always to think for themselves.”

-Robert Hutchins

 

“No one has yet fully realized the wealth of sympathy, kindness, and generosity hidden in the soul of a child.  The effort of every true education should be to unlock that treasure.”

-Emma Golmam
