A child becomes what he experiences - that was also a
point that I made (be it from a parent or a teacher).
As I stated earlier -
Teachers have a unique opportunity to counteract
unhealthy influences in a pupil's early childhood.
They have the power to affect a child's life for better
or for worse. While parents possess the original key
to their offspring's experience, teachers have a
spare key.
My Maths teacher was crammed with knowledge but she
managed to make me feel ignorant. She was a virtuoso of the
verbal slap. In her class I knew how it felt to be a
zero.
Yet my drama teacher was a true poet and a gentle critic.
She captivated our imaginations and captured our hearts.
She never criticized, she coaxed, she never pushed, she
persuaded. She never insulted, she inspired. With
sensitivity she taught us to contrast drama and life, to
evaluate performance and character. Through her efforts
I came to appreciate art and to this day I love the
theatre.
