Quotes

"[A good teacher has] to be smart. Not only a strong formal education but also what we would call 'with-it-ness.' A combination of common sense and self-awareness, a high EQ as well as high IQ. You have to be committed to this type of work. It’s not enough to just want to teach or work in education.
