For the teacher or coach, the question has to be how to give instructions in such a way as to help the natural learning process of the student and not interfere with it.

Learners should listen to their teachers. Learners should respect their teachers the same way they respect their parents at home

A student should not be taught more than he can think about.

The teacher offers guidance here and there, but the primary factor, the driving force, in your relationship and work together is the student's own commitment and desire to learn. Teaching is like sailing: The wind and the sails give the boat its motion. Your role (as a teacher) is to steer and guide.

Train assiduously, with the teacher serving as the needle and the student as the thread.31

A teacher can do very little for a pupil and should only be thankful if he don't hinder him, and the greater the master, mostly the less he can say.

Be close to your teacher without long absences.

All that can be done pedagogically is to show the student how some phenomena have been modeled, let him model some phenomena under supervision, and then hope he will be successful on his own—or know enough to secure assistance.

We can only instill principles, put the student in the right path, give him method, teach him how to study, and early to discern between essentials and non-essentials.

A good teacher must know the rules; a good pupil, the exceptions.

It is the duty of a teacher to get everything out of a student, and the duty of a student to get everything out of a teacher.

If the student is smart, the teacher takes the credit.

When the Student Is Ready, the Teacher Appears

A good teacher knows that the best way to help students learn is to allow them to find the truth by themselves. Students don't learn by a mere transfer of knowledge, consumed through rote memorization and later regurgitated. True learning comes about through the discovery of truth, not through the imposition of an official truth.
