First - to love, then - to teach.
The main task of a tutor is to prepare the youth for society-oriented labor.
The ways might be different, but in any case the education and upbringing must remain the target objective of any training.
One approach must not be applied to everybody. Actions should be reasonable and suitable to the abilities and level of training of both students and teachers.
A student's reasoning, moral virtues, feeling for aesthetics, and will and health must be equally important to a teacher.
Bare information stored in one's mind is not valuable; instead, what are valuable are the inner intellectual wisdom, the feeling for truth, and the will power.
Practical lessons that are fruitful require independence from the students.
Requirements set forth for the students must be adequate to their abilities. Tasks must not be unachievable for the class and each individual student.
The teacher must lead by example - it is the most efficient method of upbringing.
The objective of the upbringing is not to break the child's will but to educate the child.
A young human being can be encouraged to reach any heights by expressing trust in him.
Passion for some activities and diligence deserve encouragement, while unreasonable delay may result in the student's apathy.
Punishment is efficient only if the guilty one understands it and if it is adequate to the severity of the misbehaviour.
Family, school and church - these are the three forces that educate mankind.
