My favorite quote about teaching:
"It seems simple, and it is. Kids
want to know you care for them. Before they are willing to invest
effort in what you are saying, they want to know you are willing
to make an investment in them. Once you have done that, dealing
with kids is a much easier, more productive, and more meaningful
experience."

Rules for Discovering the Successful Student in Every Child
