The Chinese proverb “兴趣是最好的老师” can be translated into English in several ways, each capturing the essence of the original phrase. Here are a few translations:
- “Interest is the best teacher.”
- “The greatest teacher is interest.”
- “Intrigue is the most effective educator.”
- “Passion is the finest mentor.”
- “Curiosity is the best instructor.”
Each of these translations conveys the idea that genuine interest or passion is a powerful motivator for learning and understanding, much more so than formal instruction or rote learning.
