I had some good teachers. One of the greatest teachers I've had is bluegrass music: going back and listening to Bill Monroe's music, the Stanley Brothers, Flatt & Scruggs. When I was with Ralph Stanley I learned a lot from him.

I had a really creative teacher at primary school. He used to get us doing things such as singing Spandau Ballet in drag in the choir, and I remember loving it.

The best teaching I ever experienced was at Exeter. Yale was a distinct letdown afterward.

My most memorable teacher was Rich Campe, my third-grade teacher at Fairlands Elementary in Pleasanton, California.

During my time at Watchung Hills Regional High School, I was fortunate to have a number of teachers who inspired me and filled me with enthusiasm for learning.

I had two wonderful teachers: Sanford Melsner and Fred Kareman.

I went to the Alabama public schools at a time when my English teachers, all but one of whom was a woman, taught nothing but the classics. They revered the great British and American writers.

I taught English, first at a Catholic school and then at El Toro High School in Lake Forest, Calif.

I went to the public schools myself. And they were great for me.

If you look back on all the teachers that you liked, I am sure you will find they were very entertaining.
