Why I teach:

I try not to teach students. Instead, I hope to help them learn.

In turn, students help me learn more than ever I thought I could.

What I’ve learned:

  • Teaching presents many management challenges.
  • So does learning.
  • Students (and teachers) can almost always accomplish more than they think they can.
  • We need others more than we think we do.
  • You gain power by giving it away. This phrase may be a cliche, but it's true.
