"I had a simple pholosophy for teaching shcool:

  1. Everyone gets an A. If first you do not succeed then try, try again. I wanted my students to learn the material, so I simple insisted that they learn then I gave them a A.
  2. When you are studying away and you get hungry, get up, go to the kitchen and get something to eat. A little peanut butter never hurt a math paper.
  3. Focus only on the good and you will get the best from your students."
    Trent Jones

"It is my feeling that one of the most important jobs a teacher has is to create an atmosphere in which a child finds himself wanting to learn. If a students sincerely wants to learn, to pursue his natural curiosity, then half the teacher's battle is already won."*

"My students were the best part of my experiences as a teacher in Terlingua. They learned from me and I in turn learned from them. They will be with me forever." Trent Jones
