More From William Glasser
- "Every single major push in education has made it worse and right now it’s really bad because everything we’ve done is de-humanizing education. It’s destroying the possibility of the teacher and the student having a warm, friendly, intellectual relationship."
- "If you improve education by teaching for competence, eliminating schooling, and connecting with students, the test scores will improve."
- "Education is the process in which we discover that learning adds quality to our lives. Learning must be experienced."
