Resemblance

Personally, I feel quite similar to Pestalozzi when he was a child.  I mean, I was really talkative and I got the content quite fast, but what they never told me was that I was smart, no.  They made me feel bad about it.  I guess if I would had been different maybe I would be smarter today.  I think that we as teachers have to focus on our students and their realities, their rhythms, they previous knowledge and how they feel and live.
