Education-Egyptian Example

2. Any teacher can take a child to the classroom,
but not every teacher can make him learn.
Helen Keller on
Anne Mansfield
Sullivan
“She realized that a child's mind is
like a shallow brook which ripples
and dances merrily over the stony
course of its education and reflects
here a flower, there a bush, yonder a
fleecy cloud; and she attempted to
guide my mind on its way, knowing
that like a brook it should be fed by
mountain streams and hidden
springs, until it broadened out into a
deep river, capable of reflecting in its
placid surface, billowy hills, the
luminous shadows of trees and the
blue heavens, as well as the sweet
face of a little flower.
Any teacher can take a child to the
classroom, but not every teacher can
make him learn.”
