“But more classrooms and more teachers are not enough. We must seek an educational system which grows in excellence as it grows in size. This means better training for our teachers.

It means exploring new techniques of teaching, to find new ways to stimulate the love of learning and the capacity for creation.” WayWellsMeanEnoughGrowsEnjoyHoursEducationTeacherTeachingCreationYouthTrainingCapacityLaborExcellenceSizeEducationalTechniqueClassroomLeisureNew WaysExploringPreparingEducational SystemLove Of Learning Author:Lyndon B.
