My father still is a lawyer and my mom was a teacher and then later a career counselor.

I was a hyper kid in school and the teacher suggested to my mom she needed to do something with me.

I could never have pictured myself writing a book when I was 25 years old. My mom was an English teacher but I wasn't that way growing up.

My mom was a teacher - I have the greatest respect for the profession - we need great teachers - not poor or mediocre ones.

I think the real heroic teachers are the ones who work with kids like my mom and my sister do.

Just the actual physical ability to hold four instruments simultaneously and do some of the things that Vivien was able to do is mind blowing to any surgeon. He never went to medical school and he became one of the great teachers of medicine himself people are just amazed.

My mother was told she couldn't go to medical school because she was a woman and a Jew. So she became a teacher in the New York City public school system.

I was sent to a nice Church of England girls' school and at that time after university a woman was expected to become a teacher a nurse or a missionary - prior to marriage.

Every marriage tends to consist of an aristocrat and a peasant. Of a teacher and a learner.

Love is a better teacher than duty.

Learning while at school that the charge for the education of girls was the same as that for boys and that when they became teachers women received only half as much as men for their services the injustice of this distinction was so apparent.

I played saxophone so I was into jazz. I learned from each audience and each teacher that I had. I can't really tell you any rules or anything but the way I develop my beliefs is really just by personally learning from different situations.

I always wanted to go to the Chavez school but I could never afford it when I was growing up so a lot of my learning came from magic books and watching other magicians. I was also very lucky that I had a couple of really good magic teachers.

I got started when I was 3 years old because my father was a music teacher and my lessons were free. Instead of learning to walk you learn to play the piano.

My teachers helped guide and motivate me but the responsibility of learning was left with me an approach to learning which was later reinforced by my experiences at Amherst.

Emotional 'literacy' implies an expanded responsibility for schools in helping to socialize children. This daunting task requires two major changes: that teachers go beyond their traditional mission and that people in the community become more involved with schools as both active participants in children's learning and as individual mentors.

You never stop learning. If you have a teacher you never stop being a student.
