His influence as a teacher shaped Chinese education for several millennia and has impacted education and philosophy throughout the world. 孔子是一位倡导正规教育的老师、哲人。一生中，门下有过数以千计的学生。他的教学重点在于“六艺”（小编注：要求学生掌握的六种基本才能），包括：礼、乐、射、御、书、数。除此之外，孔子在道德培养方面也具有重要地位。作为先师，孔子不仅对中国的教育有数千年之久的影响，也对世界范围内的教育、哲学产生了一定影响。
Socrates
Socrates is considered one of Western Civilization's most significant teachers and philosophers. He led discussions with the people of Athens in which he posed challenging and profound questions. One of his students, Plato, would go on to become another major figure in the history of Western philosophy. His style of stimulating thought through question asking has been adopted by many modern teachers and is known as the Socratic method. 苏格拉底被视为西方文明中最伟大的老师、哲人之一。他引导古希腊人进行辩论，辩论中经常提出一些深刻而具有挑战性的问题。苏格拉底的学生柏拉图是西方哲学史上另一个非常重要的人物。他通过提问启发思想的作法被现今很多老师借鉴，这种教学方法被称为“苏格拉底法”。
Roger Bacon
A native of England, Roger Bacon was a friar and scholar in many academic areas, including mathematics, early chemistry and optics. He conducted experiments that greatly advanced the understanding of philosophy and science in his day. His outspoken teaching and writing style led to an imprisonment of nearly 15 years. 罗吉尔·培根，英国人，既是一名修道士，也在包括数学、化学和光学的很多领域内成为学者。他所做的实验大大促进了那个时代人们对哲学和科学的理解。然而他开放的教学和写作风格为自己带来的却是近15年的牢狱之灾。
Nathan Hale
Nathan Hale is best known as an American soldier in the Revolutionary War who was captured by the British while acting as a spy. He was hanged at the age of 21, famously saying as his final words, 'I only regret that I have but one life to lose for my country.' Prior to his death, however, he had been a teacher in Connecticut since age 18. Though his career was brief, he made advances in the cause of providing higher education to women. Hale devoted early morning hours to a class of young women. He taught them the same material he would teach their brothers later in the day. 内森·黑尔是独立战争中一名被英国擒获的美国间谍兵。他在21岁那年被处以绞刑，临刑前的遗言后来成为享誉世界的名言：“我唯一遗憾的就是我只能为我的祖国牺牲一次。”内森从18岁开始就一直是康乃迪克州的一名教师。虽然他的教学生涯很短暂，但却为妇女能够获得更高层次的教育做出了重要贡献。那时他每天早上都会为年轻妇女们上课，并教给她们和男学生们一样的知识。
Annie Sullivan
By the age of four, Annie Sullivan was legally blind due to a disease called trachoma. At age nine, upon the death of her mother and abandonment by her father, she was sent to an orphanage that lacked formal education opportunities. However, she pleaded with an administrator to be allowed to learn and eventually graduated as valedictorian of the Perkins School for the Blind in 1886. After several operations resulted in a return of her partial eyesight, she used her gifts and uncommon perspective to begin teaching a young deaf and mute girl named Helen Keller. Sullivan was the first teacher to find success with a deaf and mute child. 安妮·莎利文4岁时由于结膜炎双目失明。9岁时由于母亲的去世和父亲的遗弃被送到孤儿院。虽然几乎没有机会，莎利文还是恳求一位管理人员让自己上学，并最终在1886年以十分出色的成绩从柏金斯盲校毕业。后来经过几次手术，莎莉文重获部分视力，她凭借自己非凡的天赋成为一个聋哑小女孩——海伦·凯勒的老师，并最终成为第一位成功的聋哑小孩教师。
