Some of the best teacher's day quotes

Teachers Play A Tough Balancing Act

In a classroom full of students with different learning abilities, the teacher faces a formidable challenge -- how to teach each child to his or her maximum potential. While some children in the class may find the lesson too mundane or boring, if it is "dumbed down," other children may find it difficult to cope with difficult concepts. So how does a teacher teach at an optimum level, such that both sets of extreme learning abilities are nurtured?
                                 

Who Is A Good Teacher?

A good teacher plays the role of an educator, guide, inspirational guru, and a friend. While gently nudging the 'slow learners' to climb the steep learning curve, she engages with the 'bright minds' to delve deeper into concepts and thereby meet their need to be ahead of others.
Teachers tap the fertile mind of young children and plant the seed of curiosity in them. This inculcates the values of self-learning, exploration, and philosophical inquiry. I have seen many young children who took the spark of imagination to unimaginable heights. I have known little origami enthusiasts to grow up to become engineers of cutting edge technology. I have met kids suffering from dyslexia who grew up and became famous surgeons. Who, other than a great teacher, could have been instrumental in this phenomenal rise?

You Owe Your Success To Your Teacher

All that I have achieved in my life is because of my teachers. Some of them were formally designated as my teachers -- in school, college, and university. Others, such as my parents, were my teachers nonetheless. Here are some happy Teacher's Day quotes to celebrate the best teachers in our lives.

Dan Rather

The dream begins with a teacher who believes in you, who tugs and pushes and leads you to the next plateau, sometimes poking you with a sharp stick called truth.

Henry Brooks Adams

A teacher affects eternity; he can never tell where his influence stops.

Albert Einstein

It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge.

Nikos Kazantzakis

Ideal teachers are those who use themselves as bridges over which they invite their students to cross, then having facilitated their crossing, joyfully collapse, encouraging them to create bridges of their own.

Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe

A teacher who can arouse a feeling for one single good action, for one single good poem, accomplishes more than he who fills our memory with rows and rows of natural objects, classified with name and form.

Ken Blanchard

Your role as a leader is even more important than you might imagine. You have the power to help people become winners.
