To Teach is to Inspire...



Throughout our lives there are many people that will greatly impact our lives but it is the great teachers that you will remember for the rest of your lives. It is funny how you never forget their names and they don't even know how much they made an impact on your life. I have always thought that teachers have a thankless job and they surely aren't paid enough.

I created the "Inspire" necklace since I believe a teacher inspires you to learn new things and do things you think aren't possible. They impact the lives of our young and truly shape the future.

Here are some teacher quotes:

I touch the future. I teach. ~ Christa McAuliffe


It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge. ~ Albert Einstein


All practical teachers know that education is a patient process of mastery of details, minute by minute, hour by hour, day by day. ~ Alfred North Whitehead

A good teacher protects his pupils from his own influence. ~ Bruce Lee (This is my favorite one!)
