Let’s Talk Teaching

“Education conceives the school as a place where certain information is to be given. The value of this is conceived as lying largely in the remote future; the child must do these things for the sake of something else he is to do. As a result they do not become a part of the life experience of the child and so are not truly educative.”

John Dewey - 1897

“The teacher is of course an artist, but being an artist does not mean that he or she can make the profile to shape the students. What the educator does in teaching is to make it possible for the students to become themselves.”

Paulo Freire ~ 1971

“Education either functions as an instrument which is used to facilitate integration of the younger generation into the logic of the present system and bring about conformity or it becomes the practice of freedom, the means by which men and women deal critically and creatively with reality and discover how to participate in the transformation of their world.” !~Paulo Freire
