I'm in AWE of Homeschooling Parents

After hosting a Science Fair for homeschoolers in Singapore today, I'm reminded what an amazing thing it is to teach your children from home.

"You can teach a student a lesson for a day; but if you can teach him to learn by creating curiosity, he will continue the learning process as long as he lives.” – Clay P. Bedford

"If my child wanted to be a teacher, I would bid him Godspeed as if her were going off to war. The war against predjudice, greed and ignorance is eternal, and those who dedticate themselves to it give their lives no less, because they may live to see some fraction of the battle won.” – James Hilton

If you are a Teacher: you are affecting eternity. The influence you have on children…no one can tell where it stops!

Teachers, thank you
We are so happy
That you chose this job.
Thank you.
We know it’s not easy.
In fact sometimes,
We make it quite tough.
But our future is in your hands.
To shape.
To guide
To motivate
To inspire
Thank you teachers.
You are our heros!
