When R' Reisman (rabbi in Madison and the one who gives the huge Nach shiur on motzoei Shabbos) began teaching he asked Rabbi Pam how a teacher can avoid burn-out.

R' Pam answered, "Some rebbeim teach Gemara. They are in danger of losing their sipuk (satisfaction). Don't teach Gemara ... teach talmidim. Focus on the person, not the subject."

Great quote. Where is it from, I'd like to read more of the same.

From the Artscroll biography. There's lots more there about chinuch. He must have been a wonderful rebbi!
