Inspire!

The mediocre teacher tells. The good teacher explains. The superior teacher demonstrates. The great teacher inspires.

- William A. Ward

Teachers have in their hands the power to "Mould the future of our Nation". Because no matter how "powerful" parents have become or how "defiant" students have become, the teacher's influence in the classroom is undeniable.

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

- Henry Adams

Hence, I don't believe in a virtual classroom where teacher and students meet by teleconferencing. People have to remember that there are really only two things that came with Earth from the beginning...Nature and Life (Man and other living organisms). And strangely enough Man is the one species that exploits his environment and kill his own kind for reasons other than for survival.

People must not neglect the need to learn how to live among people. The presence of a teacher in the classroom is priceless...
