I've taught for thirteen years, and I have learned through the years that my students are my best teachers. When I've learned something new, I share it with them, and they respond as a teacher ought to: "That's cool!" They share their stories with each other and me. But perhaps the best example I can give is when I conduct the democratic classroom. It is at that time that my students teach me about brilliance, eloquence, bravery, dignity, courage, generosity, forgiveness, and experience. At the end of the year, I find myself saying to the students, "I stand before greatness." Your comments about a teacher being a master learner resonates strongly with me.
