About This Quote

One of the greatest gifts a teacher can give a student is to help him or her gain perspective. A teacher can be very educational by providing context for learning, but perspective is something only the learner can provide. A teacher cannot teach perspective. When it comes to perspective, learning from experience is more important than learning from textbooks.
