INSTRUCTIONS FOR TEACHERS.

A great deal has been said and written
about better instruction for teachers in
the public schools. Teaching is a pro-
fession and every teacher should be
skilled in the art of teaching. A man is
not tea cher simply because he has had
collegiate education. a man is not
teacher simply because he understands
art in itself. It implies first Of all the
natural gift OF imparting knowledge, and
1t implies training in the art.
THESE general principles are so we'll
recognized now that they need not to
be argued. and the question has arisen
TO how teachers may be Instructed.
Nc have had our teachers institutes
and our School of Method. and they have
done a good work but such schools are
in session but a little while during the
Year, and that, too, in the vacation sea
son. when teachers want to rest We
believe that such instruction should go
on all the year and that it should be
somebody's business to give instruction
during the school term TO the teachers.
In the cities this work is being done,
and perhaps very few people understand
how much of such work is being done.
1t is done largely by the principals of
the several schools. In Richmond it is
part of the duty of the principal to
go into this room and that from day to
day and see how the teachers are get
ting along. TO watch the weak points,
and then TO make suggestions as to
methods. Every principal, therefore. be-
comes an instructor in the art of teach
ing. and the teachers under him are
benen,ed accordingly.
In the country schools there are not
the same advantages. but it seems to US
that the State might well afford TO en-
plcy a number of professional instruo-
tors to travel around and visit the indi-
Nldual schools and give instruction to
the teachers. If the State cannot. with
the funds in hand, afford TO do this,
then the several counties should do it by
local taxation. We believe that a part
OF the school funds could not be better
expended.
