I wasn't a very good teacher.

I don't learn so good, no matter how good the teacher is.

The teaching thing, the one where I have to impart my knowledge, is probably what comes the least naturally to me because I'm an absorber of things.

I never intended to be a teacher. I just like going to school and learning things.

I've never had the patience of a teacher.

I've always said I'm a teacher at heart.

Teaching is the only major occupation of man for which we have not yet developed tools that make an average person capable of competence and performance. In teaching we rely on the 'naturals', the ones who somehow know how to teach.

At my age, you are naturally inclined towards teaching.

To be a teacher you have to have a very giving, selfless personality. I don't think I'm that selfless and giving.

Teachers are by nature idealists, and they believe anything can be learned.
