  14. Conclusion • A student enters school as a unique individual, molded by genes, environment, and a certain spark within himself. An increased awareness of how special that unique spark really makes him helps that student retain that quality. • My goal as a teacher is not to produce cookie-cutter children but to nourish each student's individual soul. As an ancient Chinese proverb says: • I hear …and I forgetI see… and I rememberI do…and I understand.
