The Joy of Teaching
The teachers who get
"burned out" are
not the ones who are constantly learning, which
can be exhilarating, but those who feel they must
stay in control and ahead of the students at all
times. A good teacher is better than a
spectacular
teacher. Otherwise the teacher outshines the
teachings.
And when you talk about teaching, a teacher must be able to spin stories, i.e. in the form of thoughts. Thought flows in terms of
stories - stories about
events, stories about people, and stories about
intentions and achievements. The best teachers
are the best story tellers. We learn in the form
of stories.
Happy Teachers' Day!!
