Exercise 3. Read the following quotations and answer the questions.
1) John Steinbeck (1902-1968), an American novelist: “A great teacher is a great artist. Teaching might even be the greatest of arts since its medium is the human mind and the human spirit.”
2) Gail Kathleen Godwin (born June 18, 1937), an American novelist and short story writer:“Good teaching is one-fourth preparation and three-fourths theater.”
So the question is: what sign should we put (teacher ? actor).
· Where do a teacher and an actor work? Who do they deal with?
· Can a teacher be considered an actor?
· Do a teacher and an actor have anything in common?
