The commandments are short and, relatively, simple, but the strongest value is in the quality of the set-up and discussion:
I. Thou shall teach both theory and practice
II. Thou shall teach students to neither mistake, nor suppress, themselves for their audience
III. Thou shall articulate the difference between vision and revision
IV. Thou shall create a plan and be prepared to improvise
V. Thou shall encourage and practice freedom with restraint
VI. Thou shall boldly state absolutes in the realm of the relative
VII. Thou shall teach reading and writing, and the importance of both
VIII. Thou shall coach students to strive for art but be prepared for life
IX. Thou shall lead as an equal
X. Thou shall temper the dream with pragmatism
