More From Frank McCourt

The poet dreams of the classroom i dreamed i stood up in class and i said aloud: teacher, why is algebra important? sit down, he said. then i dreamed i stood up and i said: teacher, i’m weary of the turkeys that we have to draw every fall. may i draw a fox instead? sit down, he said. then i dreamed i stood up once more and said: teacher, my heart is falling asleep and it wants to wake up. it needs to be outside. sit down, he said.
Dream Teacher Fall
He no longer dreamed of storms, nor of women, nor of great occurrences, nor of great fish, nor fights, nor contests of strength, nor of his wife. he only dreamed of places now and the lions on the beach. they played like young cats in the dusk and he loved them as he loved the boy. he never dreamed about the boy. he simply woke, looked out the open door at the moon and unrolled his trousers and put them on.

I wept in my dreams. i dreamed you lay in the grave; i awoke, and the tears still poured down my cheeks. i wept in my dreams, i dreamed you had left me; i awoke and i went on weeping long and bitterly. i wept in my dreams, i dreamed you were still kind to me; i awoke, and still the flow of my tears streams on.

If i'd loved my chemistry teacher and my maths teacher, goodness knows what direction my life might have gone in. i remember there was a primary school teacher who really woke me up to the joys of school for about one year when i was ten. he made me interested in things i would otherwise not have been interested in - because he was a brilliant teacher. he was instrumental in making me think learning was quite exciting.

It soared, a bird, it held its flight, a swift pure cry, soar silver orb it leaped serene, speeding, sustained, to come, don't spin it out too long long breath he breath long life, soaring high, high resplendent, aflame, crowned, high in the effulgence symbolistic, high, of the ethereal bosom, high, of the high vast irradiation everywhere all soaring all around about the all, the endlessnessnessness.

I like to remind teachers that even though they're all overwhelmed and overloaded, and it's easy to get burned out, it really is about the kids. it only takes one good teacher to change a life - one time, and one book. that's what happened when i was a kid. i had one good teacher that came in at the right time and turned me into a writer. so never lose sight - you could be that teacher.

An empathic way of being can be learned from empathic persons. perhaps the most important statement of all is that the ability to be accurately empathic is something which can be developed by training. therapists, parents and teachers can be helped to become empathic. this is especially likely to occur if their teachers and supervisors are themselves individuals of sensitive understanding. it is most encouraging to know that this subtle, elusive quality, of utmost importance in therapy, is not something one is "born with", but can be learned, and learned most rapidly in an empathic climate.
Teacher Parent Empathy
I remember when i was a kid in school and teachers would explain things to me about what i read, and i'd think, where did they get that? i didn't read that in there. later you look at it and think, that's kind of an interesting idea

Society cannot contribute anything to the breeding and growing of ingenious men. a creative genius cannot be trained. there are no schools for creativeness. a genius is precisely a man who defies all schools and rules, who deviates from the traditional roads of routine and opens up new paths through land inaccessible before. a genius is always a teacher, never a pupil; he is always self-made.

That sound in tune to you?.. sounds sharp to me. sounds like i'm playing sharp all the time. my singing teacher told us you should do that. maybe i got it from her. she said singers when they grow old have a tendency to go flat. so if you sing sharp as a young person, as you get older and go flat, you'll be in tune. in other words, it's never thought good to be flat. it means you can't get to the tone.
