us to gather strength to stand against them.
You show us the power of kindness,
of patience, of courage, of dedication.
You give us the chance to live.
一个好老师能帮助我们塑造我们生活的一部分，不管时光有多么艰难。（A good teacher can help us make something of our lives,however bad times are.）
人们期待着老师去教育好那些令父母、医生，一两个精神病专家或是一大批社会工作者大失所望的孩子。他们通常被告知这些孩子需要的只是一个正常的课堂环境。
A teacher is expected to deal with children that have defeated their parents, their doctor,
a psychiatrist or two and a gaggle of social workers.They are usually told that all that’s needed is a Normal Classroom Environment.
孩子在尝试时，一个好老师总是殷切关注着,即使成果是那么微不足道,总让孩子明白老师已经看到了他的成绩。
A good teacher notices when a child is trying even if the results are minute.And shows she’s seen the change.
一个好老师注意让每个孩子在有趣的工作中都有机会一试;在枯燥乏味的事上也同样如此。
一个好老师会认真批阅一页信手涂鸦的作业并辨认出你想说些什么。她不去重写这篇作业。她只是巧妙地一改便让通篇文字各得其所。
一个老师了解生活的一切，包括孩子熟悉的一切，并把这些事塑成通往知识和成熟的步步台阶。
