Mary Leonhardt Quotes

My Children Used To Occasionally Ask Me To Proofread English Papers For Them. The Difficulty, For Me, Was In Just Proofreading. I Could See All Kinds Of Ways They Could Make The Paper Better. But I Didn't Volunteer My Ideas, Because I Was Afraid That Then They Would Lose The Self-confidence And Sense Of Accomplishment They Had Gotten From Writing The Paper. Better To Let Their Teacher Make The Suggestions, If She Was So Inclined, Since Kids Expect English Teachers To Make Suggestions. You Need To Keep Your Long-term Goals Firmly In Mind. Children Who Are Enthusiastic About Working Will, Sooner Or Later, Do Much Better Work Than Kids Who Just Grind Out Assignments Because Someone Is Standing Over Them.
