As the daughter of two teachers with first-class degrees, I'd always seen myself as a duffer by comparison.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
My daughter became a teacher right out of college.
My younger sister had kids before I did, and managed to earn a master's degree while raising them as a single parent. Now she's a brilliant second-grade teacher. I'm in awe of her ability to juggle everything and still be a great mother.
I'm very jealous of my daughter's education. She's been inspired by her teachers, and nobody inspired me as a teenager.
I was a disadvantaged child from a non-educated family, yet I had the advantage of being in the company of great teachers.
To this end the greatest asset of a school is the personality of the teacher.
I've always said I'm a teacher at heart.
When I was growing up, I was lucky to benefit from a first class education.
To me, the avocation of a teacher has something elevating and exciting. While surrounded by the young, one may always be doing good.
I've been lucky because I've had wonderful teachers along the way who have nurtured and pushed me to the next level.
As a student I learned from wonderful teachers and ever since then I've thought everyone is a teacher.
