Language Teaching

Famous quotes containing the words language and/or teaching:

“Consensus is usually made possible by vague language and shallow commitments.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

“For good teaching rests neither in accumulating a shelfful of knowledge nor in developing a repertoire of skills. In the end, good teaching lies in a willingness to attend and care for what happens in our students, ourselves, and the space between us. Good teaching is a certain kind of stance, I think. It is a stance of receptivity, of attunement, of listening.”
—Laurent A. Daloz (20th century)
