My mother was a teacher.

My daughter became a teacher right out of college.

My mother was a teacher. She was grooming my brother and me to be successful, accomplished people.

My mother and my father were teachers. My grandmother and my grandfather were teachers. This is something I really know about. Even when I was a kid, it was a profession my father couldn't stay in, because he couldn't make enough money.

My mother had been a grade-school teacher, and my father had an eighth-grade education.

My grandmother was a teacher, my sister was a teacher, my daughter was a teacher and is now a superintendent in northern California, and my son-in-law is a high school principal. I am surrounded.

My mother tells this story that when I first went to school, I thought I was going to help the teachers. I didn't realise I was going to get educated.

Nearly everyone I met, worked with, or read about was my teacher, one way or another.
