Mois : septembre 2019

Alan Alexander Milne (1882-1956) was an English author, best known for his books about the teddy bear Winnie-the-Pooh and for various poems. Milne was a noted writer, primarily as a playwright, before the huge success of Pooh overshadowed all his previous work. Milne served in both World Wars, joining the British Army in World War I, and was a captain of the BritishHome Guard in World War II.

Winnie-the-Poh and his friends are famous for their abiliy to always look on the bright side of life. So, when in doubt,  think of this inspiring quote.

 

It’s kind of funny how, as teachers, we always hope that some pupils will have matured over the summer holidays. But September eventually knocks on the door of your expectations, and they haven’t. The only thing we can do is to rely on this quote:

“Teachers can open the door, but you must enter it yourself.” — Chinese proverb
