Education Quotations
You can teach a student a lesson for a day; but if you can
teach him to learn by creating curiosity, he will continue the learning process
as long as he lives.

Clay P. Bedford
“The beautiful thing
about learning is that no one can take it away from you.”
Aim for success, not perfection. Never give up your right to
be wrong, because then you will lose the ability to learn new things and move
forward with your life. Remember that fear always lurks behind perfectionism.

David M. Burns
"Education is the great engine of personal
development. It is through education that
the daughter of a peasant can become a
doctor, that the son of a mineworker can
become the head of the mine, that a child
of farm workers can become the president of
a great nation. It is what we make out of
what we have, not what we are given, that
separates one person from another."

Nelson Mandela
“Education is a better safeguard of liberty than a standing
army.”

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

coverage… You’ve got to take enough time
to get kids deeply involved in something so
they can think about it in lots of different
ways and apply it."

with him the joy, excitement and mystery of the world we live in.” – Rachel Carson
Children have never been very good at listening to their
elders, but they have never failed to imitate them.

"Schools must enquire deeper into their own
practices, explore new ways to motivate their
learners, make use of learning styles, introduce
multiple intelligences, integrate learning, and teach
thinking, and in the process discover the passion
and moral purpose that makes teaching exciting
and effective. It is what teachers think, what
teachers do, and what teachers are at the level of
the classroom that ultimately shapes the kind of
learning that young people get."
-
Michael Fullan
“Education is essential to change, for education creates

is the relationship between a
teacher and a group of kids."

already know. Doing is demonstrating
that you know it. Teaching is reminding
others that they know just as well as
you. You are all learners, doers,
teachers …”
-
Richard Bach
The difference between school and life? In school, you’re
taught a lesson and then given a test. In life, you’re given a test that teaches
you a lesson.
