"The teacher is the gate keeper" means the teacher is what keeps a classroom together. Without the missing puzzle, being the teacher, a classroom would not be able to function right. Teachers hold a special kind of power that overrules students in a classroom. They're ones who tell students, when to speak, when to stop speaking, or what assignments to do next. Students are the ones who wait for the teacher to call on them for questions, and wait for the teacher to give them a certain response.
Picture putting about 30 kids with no teacher being in charge. It's like having a fun full day at the zoo; it would be total chaos. Teachers are what keep the classroom together. Without a leader being present how would students learn, be disciplined, or develop memory of their education.
Teachers are the rock in a student's education. They set the ground for what comes next, or what holds off. Students take most of their time listening to the lecturing a teacher is giving, two-thirds of their time is taken up by a teacher speaking. Teachers literally ask about 348 questions a day. Students are the one who depend on a teacher. They are the dominate ones who encourage a student's curiosity in knowledge.
Philip Jackson was the creator of this quote. He also said, teachers exchange more than a thousand words with their students each day.
They play the difference in weather a child learns or not. Like a sports team, you always need that one person who can take control of their own team. It takes tremendous amount of time and hard work to overcome these obstacles, teachers even include their own personal life's into this profession.
