"教師がどのような人であるかは彼が何を教えるかよりも重要です"
— Karl A. Menninger

Simplified Meaning:
It's more vital for a teacher to be a good person than it is for them to teach specific lessons. For instance, imagine a math teacher who knows all about equations but is unkind and impatient. Students might feel discouraged and not want to learn. On the other hand, if the teacher is understanding, patient, and supportive, students are more likely to feel confident and excited to learn, even if the subject is tough. People learn better from someone they respect and feel comfortable with. So, being a good role model and caring about students makes a bigger difference than just knowing a lot about the subject. Anyone in a teaching or mentoring role can apply this by focusing on being supportive, kind, and encouraging first and foremost.
