I've been teaching for about 25 years now and one thing I have learnt is this:a good teacher is always ready to learn. About ro years ago,I was teaching students with learning difficulties in a school in Bristol. My classroom had become famous in the school as I had got a reputation for success by encouraging students to believe in themselves. One day,the head told me that a trainee teacher had arrived in school and had asked to observe my classes. As we were going to meet John,the head told me that the student was disabled.
