  • “The teacher who knows the subject well must introduce it to students in the way one introduces a friend.” - Parker J. Palmer
  • “I care for the subject, I care for the student; I’m going to do my best to help you become friends.”
  • “Without the relationship between the teacher and student, the teacher’s not going to be as adept at helping the student develop the relationship with the curriculum.”
  • “As you know a student better, you’re going to be able to establish better links between that student and the curriculum.”
  • “Relationships are at the core of everything. Nothing happens outside of a relationship.”
What’s changing our lives:
  • Keane: Known book
  • Heather: Fig and goat cheese pizza
  • Randy: Flying internationally for the first time in two years
