The joy of teaching from Rubem Alves' perspective

"The teacher is born of the exuberance of happiness, but only their students can attest to this truth. We believe that, in this way, when we refer to the fulfilment of the curriculum, we, as educators, try to gauge our importance in the lives of our students, realise how students see the world through our eyes, so that we can be more, much more than just a teacher. We will indeed be transmitters of joy and pleasure."
