Teacher Miracles

“Education is not filling a bcucket, but lighting a fire” – Wiiliam Butler Yeats

You hold in your hand a collection of true stories that work a common theme: the ability of eduatoin to change a life forever. Not all of them take place in conventional classroom, and not all of the experiences involve a teacher changing the life of a student. Sometimes it’s vice-versa. Sometimes it’s an experience that goes both ways. Heck, sometimes the student becomes the teacher.

It’s experiences like these that so often remind me that I have the best job in the world.

Think about it. If you want to find someone who is still learning, take a look around you. If you want to find someone who isn’t, try a cemetry.
