My Best Teacher Ever

Most of my teachers were people that took the time out to guide me through the right direction. I can only say I can give the best teacher award to someone who motivated me and took the time to care for me. Her name is Mrs. Gloria Matthews, who’s a math teacher that taught at Klein Forest High School; when I was in the 10th grade. Math is a hard subject to me, but the patience she had gave a better understanding on the word Math. I consider Mrs. Matthews to be the best teacher I ever had because she despise my weaknesses.
I know I’m not the brightest student a teacher can have, but I try to strive for my best ability. Every day in class seemed like a new lesson was being teach. At the beginning of class she always had a stuck up attitude that made you believe she could care less if you catch on to the work or not. But as time passes, I had the wrong perspective about her. She was caring, kind, and a well educated person.
I always acted shy in front my classmates because I didn’t want to be the only person who didn’t catch on. So as the class ended I asked for one on one help so I can get a better understanding. One day when I failed a test but knew the work she asked me, “how do you remember things”, and I replied “songs”. So Mrs. Matthews and I sung short songs to help me remember the problems. It was a great idea because I aced my test. She faced me with challenges and motivated me to overcome the obstacle that was in my way of passing math.
Mrs. Matthews treated everyone like adults. It was no right or wrong answer because we had to respect one another answers even if it was extremely wrong.
Mrs. Gloria Matthews turned out to be the wonderful teacher I could count on to lend a hand. I was so grateful to have her that year as my math teacher because she helped me gain a better perspective on math. She is extremely a role model who inspired me to do my greatest and fulfill my potential. I admire Mrs. Gloria Matthews for what she

The person who influences people in such a positive way deserves praise and recognition.

In the essay, the author describes his experience with a certain teacher and how she changed so many lives in a positive way. Rowan states “They knew the measure of a great teacher:love and motivation. Her wisdom and influence has rippled out across generations”(414). By believing in her students and supporting them through their hardship, the teacher had ultimately given the students…

    Ms. Janke was not just my instructor; she turned out to be a close friend and wanted to help anyone who desired to improve. Yes, the instructors at the school may be there to help you get through high school, but that doesn’t mean they can’t be your friend. I treated Ms. Janke as if she was just “one of the guys.” We would joke around, laugh, and tell stories of what went on outside of the classroom. She also helped me become more confident in my ability to be more open and less confined to myself when around other people. I was a very shy person, but thanks to her advice of having effective communication and not caring about other people’s opinions as much I turned out to be outspoken and communicated well with…

    When you first meet her you might think she is tough but the reason she is so tough on you is because she wants so much for you. She was such an inspiration to me because she loves being a teacher and she also loves watching kids grow.

She has been a person that has helped me in a lot of ways through the toughest of times in school and out of school. For example, when I found a…

    Looking back on my education, there are plenty of teachers that I felt were effective in getting me to learn material, but I will mention just two. Teacher A was my 8th grade and 10th grade math teacher. He didn’t necessarily make math easier in any way, but he made math much more fun because you looked forward to going to his class. Teacher A always used simple jokes, often requiring a very dry humor, which made me constantly pay attention in class so I could catch his different jokes. He also had the ability to demand respect in his class without ever really enforcing anything. He was simply such an amazing teacher that everyone respected his class and no one ever acted up. Teacher B, my 8th grade science teacher, also had a big impact on my education for the better. I enjoyed going to her classes because she was able to connect with me and a few of my friends on more of a personal level. She took an interest in our lives and made sure we were all on the path toward better futures. She, unlike Teacher A, demanded respect in her classroom in more of an authoritative way. Her students knew that if they acted up, she would not skip a beat to send them to the office, resulting in very few problems.…

I thought when I walk in this classroom I thought that it would be challenge for me. I thought that should I be in this classroom?

    Two Teachers

    High school students often find it difficult to view their teachers as anything but "the enemy." However, after the first few months of the school year, students learn to appreciate their teachers as individuals with different approaches. Some teachers are "cool," while others are "tough." Some can be both "cool" and "tough" at the same time. Although Sally Thompson & Robert Crawford are both respected teachers at our school, their teaching styles and expectations for students differ significantly. While Ms. Thompson maintains a highly structured classroom atmosphere to keep her pupils disciplined and motivated, Mr. Crawford downplays structure in order to allow his students to push themselves. What becomes apparent, though, is that two teachers can be drastically different yet still be effective in their own ways.…
