You Can Be My Teacher is the sixth track on the second disc of 94 East’s second collection of studio recordings Symbolic Beginning, featuring Prince on guitar and bass guitar.

Basic tracking took place in Summer 1978, at Prince’s France Avenue Home Studio in Edina, Minnesota (along with Love, Love, Love), although the basic tracking took place by Pepé Willie while house-sitting for Prince, who was away. When Prince returned, he recorded bass guitar overdubs, also at the home studio.

You Can Be My Teacher was included on every reissue of 94 East’s Symbolic Beginning (The Early Years in 1999, One Man Jam in 2000 and 94 East Featuring Prince in 2016 and on the Expanded CD edition of Dance To The Music Of The World in 2024).
