“Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Teach a man to fish and he eats for a lifetime. Teach a man to learn and he learns for a lifetime." This is one of my goals as a teacher educator - teach my students how to learn so they can become self-sufficient, lifelong learners, but more importantly, teach their own students how to become life long learners.
