The Schools Our Children Deserve | Quote 01383

Quote

The educators (and parents) who do the most for children are those who honor, and work hard to find out, what children already know. They start where the student is and work from there. They try to figure out what students need and where their interests lie. Superb teachers strive constantly to imagine how things look from the child’s point of view, what lies behind his questions and mistakes.
