Penn & Teller's Teller on How to Be an Effective Teacher - The Atlantic
'I asked Teller, a former Latin teacher and the silent half of the magical partnership known as Penn & Teller, about his years as an educator, and the role performance played in his teaching. '
'From the moment a teacher steps into the classroom, students look to him or her to set the tone and course of study for everyone, from the most enthusiastic to the most apathetic students. '
'The first job of a teacher is to make the student fall in love with the subject. '
'That is at the root of what you want out of a teacher; a delight in what the subject is, in the operation. '
'As that symbol, Teller argued, the teacher has a duty to engage, to create romance that can transform apathy into interest, and, if a teacher does her job well, a sort of transference of enthusiasm from teacher to student takes place. '
