"The best teacher is one who suggests, rather than dogmatizes, and inspires his listener with the wish to teach himself." - Edward Bulwer-Lytton
This quote means that the best teacher is one who allows students to have a choice. They teach but do not give their own opinions about the material. The best teacher gives students the tools they need to teach themselves. I agree with this quote, it's important to let students teach themselves and have their own opinions about various subjects. Teachers that are too opinionated may sway students interests in various subjects. I can relate to this both by being a students and my teaching experience so far. I personally learn best when I have to look up information and teach myself.
