Neil Kurshan

Famous quotes containing the words neil kurshan and/or kurshan:

    If we focus exclusively on teaching our children to read, write, spell, and count in their first years of life, we turn our homes into extensions of school and turn bringing up a child into an exercise in curriculum development. We should be parents first and teachers of academic skills second.
    Neil Kurshan (20th century)

    “Walk a mile in my shoes” is good advice. Our children will learn to respect others if they are used to imagining themselves in another’s place.
    —Neil Kurshan (20th century)
