The Prophet Joseph Smith gave high priority to home teaching. A Brother Oakley was the Prophet's home teacher, and whenever Brother Oakley went home teaching to the Smith home, "the Prophet called his family together and gave his own chair to Oakley, telling his family" to listen carefully to Brother Oakley.
(from William G. Hartley, "Ordained and Acting Teachers in the Lesser Priesthood, 1851–1883," Brigham Young University Studies, spring 1976, 384.)
