Two art teachers have been honored with the Global Teacher Prize Portugal, showcasing the impact of creativity in education. One standout, José Oliveira, transformed his Geometry classes into a 'creation laboratory', earning him prestigious recognition.
Oliveira shares his philosophy on teaching: 'A good teacher is defined by who you are as a person. You must love what you do.' He emphasizes the daily balance between the joy of successful teaching and the frustration of not reaching every student, a dynamic he believes fosters excellence in education.
His approach underlines the importance of passion and knowledge in teaching, but also highlights that knowing the subject matter isn't enough—it's the personal connection and dedication that make the difference.
