TO TEACH: Some Thoughts about Andragogy Unless you learn to reach you will never teach. Teaching is a process of sharing, interacting & bonding. Teaching is never a one-way street; it is a vigorous interpersonal activity. It is much more than a question of formula or technique; it is creating multi-dimensional sculptures that are constantly evolving. Teachers must profess yet not preach; they must listen closely yet also know when to speak. Ultimately who you are is what you will teach & in the process you'll become a different being. ===================================================================================== from _Crassroom Voices - Poetry, Art, & Dialogs about Education_ by T Newfields SUMMARY: Reflections on teacher identity and teaching principles KEYWORDS: teacher identity, teaching philosophy, teaching principles, pedagogy Author: T Newfields [Nitta Hirou / Huáng Yuèwǔ] (b. 1955) Begun: 1997 in Shizuoka, Japan / Finished: 2018 in Yokohama, Japan Creative Commons License: Attribution. {{CC-BY-4.0}} Granted < LAST http://www.tnewfields.info/CrassroomVoices/tv.htm TOC http://www.tnewfields.info/CrassroomVoices/index.html NEXT > http://www.tnewfields.info/CrassroomVoices/thanks2.htm TRANSLATIONS ESPAÑOL: http://www.tnewfields.info/es/ense.htm NIHONGO: http://www.tnewfields.info/jp/oshieru.htm ZHŌNGWÉN: http://www.tnewfields.info/zh/jiaoxue.htm
