Generally students are the best vehicles for passing on ideas, for their thoughts are plastic and can be molded and they can adjust the ideas of old men to the shape of reality as they find it in villages and hills of China or in ghettos and suburbs of America.

I encourage students to pursue an idea far enough so they can see what the cliches and stereotypes are. Only then do they begin to hit pay dirt.

I'm not going to school just for the academics - I wanted to share ideas, to be around people who are passionate about learning.

A teacher should have a creative mind.

We need to encourage innovative ideas that give parents better alternatives to prepare children for higher education and for the jobs of the future.

So this is the space during tutoring hours. It's very busy. Same principles: one-on-one attention, complete devotion to the students' work and a boundless optimism and sort of a possibility of creativity and ideas.

We need students to understand how the world has changed and be prepared to make contributions in a new way.

Ideas are cheap and easy, and there are a lot of them.

Something I've really enjoyed learning more about is course design.
