Sinopsis
Excerpt from Lectures on the Teaching of Composition
I say that I try to direct the attention of students to some of the problems of their profession. Let a student enquire, not -of others, but of himself what these subjects which he purposes to teach really are. When he makes that enquiry he will find that any subject which he may hope to teach is not some thing. External to himself, but an activity in which he may be himself engaged, and that he cannot truly begin to teach it until he is actually engaged in it This discovery at once limits the number of subjects which he can decently attempt, and gives a previously unsuspected range and depth to the remainder. This remainder will include everything which is vital; the subjects which fall within it will prove themselves aspects of character, modes of intelligence. Essential parts of life.
The student who asks himself, What is this that I am doing? Will go on to enquire, Why am I doing it? And then How am I doing it? The third question cannot be usefully asked till some sort of answer has been given to the two first, and no complete answer will ever be given to it.
Let him learn what he can from others, but let him be sure that there is no method for him but his own, fashioned for his own needs, with the help of example and experience and of tested skill, yet not without the aid of Fortune, Nature, God - by whatever name he knows the strange force that carries him beyond the scope of his measured powers, making him other than his exemplars and greater than himself.
My thanks are due to Mr. D. J. 81055 for reading the lectures, and making. Many. Useful criticisms.

Excerpt from Lectures on the Teaching of Composition
Some apology seems to be needed for the publication of these lectures. They were prepared for my own pupils, and are here printed, except for a few slight changes, as they were delivered. They formed part of a long series of lectures, accompanied and, I trust, illustrated, corrected, or re-enforced by observation and practice in schools - a series intended to direct the attention of students, presently to become teachers, to some of the main problems with which they will have to deal.
It may be said with truth that the best way to learn to teach is to try. to teach, and that the best way to train students for teaching is to give them opportunities for practice. And practice has in fact always formed a large part of the "training," whether that process has been regarded as limited by student-days, or more happily conceived as extending through life. But though practice yields much, it yields less than all that is needed. I do not speak now of studies of high value for a teacher, and necessary indeed if he is to enter into his full inheritance of knowledge and of power - studies, for example, in the history of Education, or in Ethics, or Psychology. In addition to practice and concurrently with it the student must get advice.
