Teaching is a truly noble profession. It's sad the amount of responsibility that teachers have today. They're not only teaching kids: they're raising kids, policing kids - and they don't make a lot of money.
‐‐ Jesse L. Martin
Teaching is a very effective way to get children to learn something specific - this tube squeaks, say, or a squish then a press then a pull causes the music to play. But it also makes children less likely to discover unexpected information and to draw unexpected conclusions.
‐‐ Alison Gopnik
Teaching is a very noble profession that shapes the character, caliber, and future of an individual. If the people remember me as a good teacher, that will be the biggest honour for me.
‐‐ A. P. J. Abdul Kalam
Teaching is an art and a profession requiring years of training.
‐‐ Dick Cavett
Teaching is an instinctual art, mindful of potential, craving of realizations, a pausing, seamless process.
‐‐ A. Bartlett Giamatti
Teaching is in my blood.
‐‐ J. K. Simmons
Teaching is in my bones. I love to teach.
‐‐ Norman Finkelstein
Teaching is like flying a plane. You leave school one day feeling like you're spiraling down toward the trees, expecting that the next day the crash will come. You brace yourself for the impact, only to find that things have leveled out at treetop height, and you climb and enjoy the remainder of the flight.
‐‐ Herb Trimpe
Teaching is not a lost art, but the regard for it is a lost tradition.
‐‐ Jacques Barzun
Teaching is really very, very important. I always tell my students that you should find an opportunity to teach. When you teach others, you teach yourself.
‐‐ Itzhak Perlman
Teaching is so rewarding because when you see the look on student's faces when they get it, when you're able to excite them about what you're excited about; it's so rewarding, and it's so much fun.
‐‐ Shanola Hampton
Teaching is the only major occupation of man for which we have not yet developed tools that make an average person capable of competence and performance. In teaching we rely on the 'naturals', the ones who somehow know how to teach.
‐‐ Peter Drucker
Teaching is the royal road to learning.
‐‐ Jessamyn West
Teaching is too strong a word for whatever it was I did at Northeastern University.
‐‐ Robert B. Parker
Teaching kids about health and fitness is important to me. It's about being fit for life.
‐‐ Jackie Joyner-Kersee
Teaching man his relatively small sphere in the creation, it also encourages him by its lessons of the unity of Nature and shows him that his power of comprehension allies him with the great intelligence over-reaching all.
‐‐ Annie Jump Cannon
Teaching methods are often inadequate for the goals faculties are trying to achieve. Important courses such as expository writing and foreign languages are frequently taught by untrained graduate students and underpaid adjunct teachers.
‐‐ Derek Bok
Teaching money management is a practical tool that will help shape kids' futures.
‐‐ Bill Rancic
Teaching needs an ecosystem that supports evidence-based practice. It will need better systems to disseminate the results of research more widely, but also a better understanding of research, so that teachers can be critical consumers of evidence.
‐‐ Ben Goldacre
Teaching physics at the University, and more general lecturing to wider audiences has been a major concern.
‐‐ Antony Hewish
Teaching players during practices was what coaching was all about to me.
‐‐ John Wooden
Teaching prejudice to a child is itself a form of bullying. You've got to be taught to hate.
‐‐ Roger Ebert
Teaching, real teaching, is - or ought to be - a messy business.
‐‐ Harry Crews
Teaching regularly has made me an even more adept reader, I think. The kind of teaching I do is more like editing than anything else. The kind of editing book editors used to do before lunch. The kind of editing I used to do as a radio documentary maker.
‐‐ Paul Muldoon
Teaching's hard! You need different skills: positive reinforcement, keeping students from getting bored, commanding their attention in a certain way.
‐‐ Bill Gates
Teaching someone to be funny is like teaching someone to be fast. They're already fast. You're just making them faster.
‐‐ Ali Farahnakian
Teaching sometimes seems like not one profession, but every profession. We ask them to be doctor and diplomat, calf-herder, map-maker, wizard and watchman, electricians of the mind.
‐‐ Nancy Gibbs
Teaching the history of the British Empire links in with that of the world: for better and for worse, the Empire made us what we are, forming our national identity. A country that does not understand its own history is unlikely to respect that of others.
‐‐ Antony Beevor
Teaching thinking for just five hours to unemployed youngsters increased employment 500 percent.
‐‐ Edward de Bono
Teaching was my first job after leaving university. It was a challenge, but I enjoyed it. Some of the kids were disruptive, but I could deal with it because I was only 24 at the time, and my own school memories were still fresh.
‐‐ Laura Mvula
Teaching was my transition from student life to working life. In those days, our system of education was a little different. The number of students in each class was huge. I think in political science general, which I taught, it was around 100.
‐‐ Pranab Mukherjee
Teaching was the hardest work I had ever done, and it remains the hardest work I have done to date.
‐‐ Ann Richards
Teaching was the most pleasant thing I did.
‐‐ Earl Butz
Teaching writing over the years intrudes on your own writing in important ways, taking away some of the excitement of poetry.
‐‐ Robert Morgan
Team competition is my priority.
‐‐ Lin Dan
Team doctors' jobs those days were to keep you on the field.
‐‐ Merlin Olsen
Team GB's success at the Beijing Olympics can, in part, be said to have been made in Manchester. For example, all the cycling medal winners trained at Manchester's velodrome, the National Cycling Centre.
‐‐ Lucy Powell
Team members care about one another, listen, share secrets, talk about the latest news, have heated arguments, are sometimes jealous of each other, and even cry together.
‐‐ Tom Rath
Team Obama continues to dominate new media, spending far more effort and money than Team Romney in targeted online youth outreach.
‐‐ Jennifer Granholm
Team Obama is exploiting the power of high government office to intimidate lawful, peaceful contributors who support limited-government causes.
‐‐ Michelle Malkin
Team playing, that's what I see when I'm out there watching the WNBA games. All the girls play as a team, and they have each other's backs, and that's great.
‐‐ Keke Palmer
Team spirit spurs me on. I've always found it easier to be strong for other people than for myself.
‐‐ Cheryl Cole
Team sports are very important for shaping personalities. It's important that kids understand the mentality behind playing team sports and playing for one another and playing with friends.
‐‐ Brian O'Driscoll
Team sports aren't my thing. I find it easier to pick something up if I can do it at my own speed. And you don't need a partner to go running, you don't need a particular place, like in tennis, just a pair of trainers.
‐‐ Haruki Murakami
Team sports, there's always some kind of sacrifice happening... A team, if we lose, if Michael Jordan has a bad night, you hang it on him a little bit... but if you lose as a tennis player, you have no one to blame but yourself, and that's a different beast.
‐‐ Marc Blucas
Teammates tell me to bring it down a notch in practice or that their hands are hurting. Randy Moss told me I was the first person to ever dislocate one of his fingers.
‐‐ Colin Kaepernick
Teams are going to try to hit me because they think I can't take a hit. I think I've proven over my career that I can.
‐‐ Robert Griffin III
Teams are made up of a lot of components. They're made up of hunger, they're made up of desire, they're made up of chemistry, and they're made up of emotion.
‐‐ H. G. Bissinger
Teams are often pretty clear about what they can do or are willing to do.
‐‐ Derek Fisher
Teams like Ferrari, McLaren and Mercedes are going to be very, very motivated to go for the titles.
