“A teacher can change lives with just the right mix of chalk and challenges.”  ~ Joyce Meyer

Teachers play a significant role in the upbringing of their students. The impact they create on the young impressionable minds goes way beyond the four walls of the classroom – and beyond the years spent in the school. The lessons teachers help students learn aren’t just about algebra or literature – they’re about life! This teacher’s day let’s reflect on the great lessons they taught us!

• Learning = Lifelong Earning

Students today are in a rush to complete their education and start earning as soon as possible. It is the teachers who put a spotlight on learning as a lifelong process. Lifelong learning can enhance our understanding of the world around us, provide us with more and better opportunities and improve our quality of life.

•  You can become anything you want!

It is a valuable lesson that teachers must never stop teaching. As adults, we know that it is nearly impossible to break a generational rut. However, we should never give up hope that we can reach students and help them break a cycle that has held other family members back for many generations. Nothing should stop you from becoming the person you were born to become!

• In the end, it’s not money but happiness that matters.

Money can bring you a lot of luxuries, but happiness brings you ultimate satisfactions. Art, sports and music teachers would always fuel your passion and make you work for something you truly believe will lead you to your happiness.

• Hard work is the key to success

Those who work the hardest typically achieve the most. Teachers understand that some students are more naturally gifted than others, but even the most gifted student will not achieve much if they are lazy. It is nearly impossible to be successful at anything if you are not willing to work hard.

• Teamwork brings Rewards!

Teamwork is a valuable skill taught in schools. Schools often provide the first opportunities for children to work together with other children who may be different. Working cooperatively is imperative to both team and individual success. Students must be taught that each individual part working together makes the team successful.
