There are large numbers and proportions of students who read well enough [for us] to assume that they would benefit from these approaches, and we suspect that working more effectively with the high school texts...

When teachers doubt your potential, show them how wrong they truly are.

In particular when the students aren’t privy to the full story. I think both sides should cease and desist. I think it’s a distraction in the classroom.

The chief wonder of education is that it does not ruin everybody concerned in it, teachers and taught.

John Updike is always fun. And one of my former students, Tom Pynchon. And Harold Bloom, another former student.

That was a tremendous relief, … This tragedy was a shock to our students and staff.

I also want to make sure student tax dollars are spent responsibly. Regardless, they are spent on the students who pay them.

One of my students in 2002 ‘¦ was on a cruise to the Antarctic, and in January they collected samples along the Larsen B ice shelf. In late February or early March of that same...

It is my understanding the student told other students that he had a gun, but he didn’t have a gun of any kind. We didn’t feel there was an immediate threat, but we’re certainly taking...

And if she liked and trusted the person who asked, she would add that yes, it was kind of a lot to deal with: her outward affect was bright and capable, and that was no...

We are having more and more students enroll, and it would be great to keep on getting more.

The reality for teachers is we don’t know if we’ve been successful or not. It takes years to see how a kid turns out, and it’s impossible to know what role we’ve played, for better...

Now students all seem to be converging on the same self, the successful upper-middle-class professional, impersonating the adult they’ve already decided they want to become.

I’ve treated them just like my own students, so they’ve had to commit to the way we work. It’s been interesting to see how the thoroughness and meticulous analysis of the way we operate has...

If anything, I was the opposite of most college students who think they can do anything.

What we want in Ireland is a National University which will bring students together and educate them upon national lines.

Not only do the students enjoy being here at the building but the staff is absolutely loving this too. They are able to collaborate with their colleagues as they are all in one building rather...

I like to see students get excited.

Is that what those were?” Gerry blithely replied.
