    "When we imply that teaching is quickly learned and easily fixed (like learning the fox trot); that it is based on methods and techniques or on little formulas; that it is generic, in the sense that learning to teach in Hannibal equips a teacher for teaching in Harlem – then teaching can be killed off entirely."

    From To Teach: The Journey of a Teacher

    by William Ayres

    "When we imply that teaching is quickly learned and easily fixed (like learning the fox trot); that it is based on methods and techniques or on little formulas; that it is generic, in the sense that learning to teach in Hannibal equips a teacher for teaching in Harlem then teaching can be killed off entirely." (p. 12)

    "The work of a teacher exhausting, complex, idiosyncratic, never twice the same is at its heart, an intellectual and ethical enterprise. Teaching is the vocation of vocations, a calling that shepherds a multitude of other callings. It is an activity that is intensely practical and yet transcendent, brutally matter-of-fact, and yet fundamentally a creative act. Teaching begins in challenge and is never far from mystery." (p. 127)
