“The dreams of the past - whether it was public TV being rolled into the classroom to teach Spanish, or the film projectors or the videotapes or the computer-aided instruction drill systems - the hopes have been dashed in terms of technology having some big impact. The foundation, I think can play a unique role there. Now, our money is more to the teacher-effectiveness thing, and technology is No. 2, but I'll probably spend more money on the technology things.” ThinkingHas BeensPlayDreamBigsPastFilmTermRolesTeachTechnologyTeacherTvsComputerUniqueFoundationImpactInstructionClassroomMore MoneyEffectivenessDrillsBig ImpactProjectors Author:Bill Gates

“I come from a musical family. Mom was a piano teacher for a large portion of her life, and Dad is a saxophone hobbyist who grew up in England during the heyday of Tubby Hayes and Ronnie Scott. I started taking piano lessons from my Mom, but it's too easy to slack off with your parent, so she passed me on to a friend of hers, where I got more motivated to play music by playing pop hits and TV themes. I did some classical training, but I was always more into the really thematic stuff.” PlayEasyStuffParentTeacherTvsGrewMomDadLessonsGrew UpTrainingEnglandMusicalMy MomPopsPianoThemeMotivatedPortionsSaxophonePiano LessonThematicHeydayPiano Teachers Author:Gerard Cox
“My first trip abroad was to do a TV version of "Les Miserables" in France with Anthony Perkins. There I was at 12 acting with the guy from Psycho (1960).

“The headmistress was a very well-respected theater teacher. She taught me what stage left and stage right were, what a director was, and what all these things meant, which was something I had no concept of. She sent me off to drama school, at age 18, and I stayed there for three years. Before I knew it, I was working on a TV show.” YearsWellsShowsAgeSchoolThreeLeftTeacherStageTaughtTvsDramaDirectorsConceptsTheaterThree YearsTv ShowsHeadmistress Author:Robert Kazinsky
“These two guys [Donald Trump and Chris Christie] kinds find each other. They love each other. They were playing let`s spend the night together when I turned the TV in the hotel today.
