Effective teaching may be the hardest job there is.

When you study great teachers... you will learn much more from their caring and hard work than from their style.

If you improve education by teaching for competence, eliminating schooling, and connecting with students, the test scores will improve.

In any place work is done, you cannot accept anything less than competence if you want high quality.

If we had in this room a hundred teachers, good teachers from good schools, and asked them to define the word education, there would be very little general agreement.
