THE DREAM The following are short summaries of dream which all contain teachers. I have tried best to isolate the symbolic meaning of teachers in each dream.

A teacher dream linked to the dreamers mother telling the her off for not helping her little brother with his homework. They had a difference of opinion as her mother thought the dreamer was being lazy in not helping him. The dreamer felt her brother could do the work on his own and that this would be good for him. The teacher symbolised this disagreement about how best to help her brother learn.

A teacher dream linked to the dreamer wanting to write a report in a new way. He had his own ideas and present them in an interesting and accessible way. The teacher symbolised his wish to put across these own ideas as effectively as possible.

A teacher whining dream linked to the dreamer trying to show someone and help them do things right. However,the person they were trying to help was just not willing to listen and this really disillusioned the dreamer who did not really want to help anyone in the same way again. The teacher in the dream symbolised his own attempts to give advice and his frustration that the person he tried to help was just not willing to learn from him and take his advice.

Recommending a teacher linked to the dreamer being abused, Just recently she was beginning to trust again and had met a guy who she believed in. The teacher symbolised her total trust and belief in him.

A teacher dream linked to the dreamer knowing how to solve a problem. She thought people were just not addressing the facts and were not listening. The teacher symbolised her feeling that she knew the answer to a particular problem.
