My teachers are my heroes~ care to know why?

When I was in elementary school, I was fortunate to have excellent teachers who taught me how to read, (and I love to read) and proper hygiene %26amp; manners. I had music teachers from 2nd through 8th grade who taught me to love music %26amp; how to sing, (I have a broad interest in music). In 7th grade my geography teacher, who was also a mountain climber and explorer, instilled in me a love for the outdoors and nature (I love to mountain hike). From 2nd grade through 5th, my gym teachers raised my self esteem and self confidence and taught me how to be a better athlete than I already was,(I've always been active in athletics and coaching), and I'm a history nut because my history teachers made learning history fun and interesting. Most of my teachers were very good to me and were good at their job. They had a more profound effect on my life than my own parents. Do you folks feel the same way about your teachers as I, or was I just one of the lucky ones? Feel free 2 thank your teachers here.

My teachers are my heroes~ care to know why?
i want to thank my maths tutor for her great patience and belief in me.





she took great pains to coach me - a super idiot in maths - and i managed to pass within short period of time. i would have flopped my maths and not able to continue my studies, if she did not appear at the right time.





thank you, miss.
Reply:You're lucky... I like one of my teachers, Mr.Cussler... he teaches philosophy and he always relates everything well... he had some bad experiences and doesn't hesitate to tell us not to do what he did. But the rest of my teachers..well... they're paid to be there.. it seems like that's all they care about. Except maybe Mrs. Stopford..she's so into womans rights' and stuff. She rocks!


But I taught myself all those things people taught to you, you're lucky, and it's good that you are interested in so many things :) I hope you go on to do GREAT things with all these skills... Love Always..Mychelle
Reply:u were defiantly one of the lucky ones...good 4 you....and the other kids will be so lucky 2.....
Reply:Absolutely. Mr. Vail of Simi Valley High School boosted my self esteem by teaching me Chemistry - I actually got an "A". Mr. Olsen of Simi valley - same thing. I'd never earned an A+ in history. It was those two experiences that jump started my academic life. I graduated high school with a 3.4... college with a 3.7.. and a masters program with a 4.0. Amazing - I thought I'd never be the person that I am today.
Reply:well most of my life ive been home schooled cuz kids in my town r really really mean and nasty so i will thank my mom and dad 4 teaching me...i guess. and i want to thank miss duran my second 2nd grade teacher. she said i was a very good student and that it would make her job easyer if her students were more like me. and she always made me feel like i was loved in school even if i didnt have that many friends. and yes u were lucky.
Reply:yOU WERE VERY LUCKY. I had a handful of great teachers...the rest ...well. I don't even think they liked kids or their jobs and probably hated all the other teachers (politics you know are everywhere).
