So many teachers have had a big impact on me, but I am just sad that I am the quiet girl in the class and that they will probably never know how much I am grateful for what they have done to me...
You should write them a letter to let them know you appreciate them. It can mean a lot.
A F-L i guess yeah, a letter even if you don't sign it just say thank you anonymously
A F-L Gurl, I have the SAME problem. Im a shy girl in class, and i never have the courage to tell teachers how much they mean to me.
A F-L me too!
I had this problem too back then. But I went to my teacher after classes and started talking to her a lot, about everything and we got closer after some time. At the beginning I often thought how stupid it was to go to her and talk with her about private things and so on, because it seemed embarassing some times. BUT I continued and now we are like really close and even after I got out of my school I still visit her at home some times, give her presents and she even knows what she has done for me, so it isn't bad to try to talk to them, even if you're the shy girl :) (they are only humans too and they also need some positive feedback from students so go on and try it ^^)
teachers are so underpaid and under appreciated. Honestly I have had teachers that have changed my life, I cannot thank them enough for being such wonderful people. I wish I could see them again, just to thank them.
Natalie Haddad same
Natalie Haddad I think this makes teaching such a magical job.
Natalie Haddad You know what's funny? My teacher's name is Mrs Haddad 😂
Natalie Haddad || I totally agree. I have 2 teachers right now that are amazing (english and geometry). I was told by my mom I was moving high schools (still in the same district), I got really sad bc I loved my english teacher and the school.. my english teacher helped and supported me with the move out my old school and when I got to my new school my geometry teacher here helped me adjust to the new school! Teachers are amazing and totally deserve better than rotten students. I am really good in geometry (I get 110s) and I'm thinking about becoming a geometry teacher.. my family makes fun of me for it though :( what do you guys think? Should I consider something else or persue my dream?
Natalie Haddad underpaid? in which country? in Austria Teachers have the best paid. More then doctors... 😆😊
This litteraly made me cry so much. My mom was an alcoholic from my early childhood, and in second grade i changed school. I had this teacher from 2nd grade to 6th grade. In about 4th grade I started cutting myself, and she was the first one to discover it. She helped me SO much, she even helped me clean my wounds so it wouldn't get infected a few times. She was the only person in the world who believed in me to the fullest. When 6th grade ended, I was so sad that I couldn't have her. She wrote me a letter telling me that i was the one person she had so much trouble "leaving". She even talked to my new (fucking horrible) teacher, and told her to make sure I was okay. In 7th grade i got hospitalized in the pscych ward, and the next 2 years ahead i was in and out, and now, I'm in 10th grade (in a special school), diagnosed with schizophrenia. A day doesn't pass where I don't think about her, and feel grateful for her being there for me. I truly believe that if she wasn't there for me the way she was, I would have killed myself a long time ago.
Livet ifølge Josephine wow *feels* it's amazing how people come in to your life for a certain period of time and leave such a big impact right? Anyways I hope you're ok 👌

Mia Weekes honestly you should go and tell them or give them a paper with what you think of them. i went and told it to my history teacher last year and was happy to know that I made him happy ! Teachers are way too criticized and if you can change it, let them know than go for it ! 😉

Teachers have the power to really influence and positively affect students and their lives. A good teacher is never forgotten. Hence why teachers are so valuable.
The same could be said about bad teachers and the negative affects on students. I don't really remember but 2 good teachers. The rest just thought it was a good idea to yell and make an example out of me. I found out later in life I'm dyslexic and have other learning disorders. I got the help I needed to learn but I still can't shake this PTSD. Thanks again teachers.
i wish my math teacher knew how much i like her. my class is all the students who fail math so if the teacher tells them to put away there phone they will say that shes a shitty teacher and cant teach us anything. she is a super nice teacher and explains everything perfectly but has shitty students :/ i want to buy her flowers when its the end of the year. since my name is Lily i buy my fav teachers tiger lilys
Lily Stanyer I'm sure she would love that gesture:)
Lily Stanyer That's cool bro.
yeah. Students who don't like the teacher because he/she teaches something. That is weird. I like the teachers who teach me the most.
I'm so glad to see that they're are grateful people
KlaineAnimals sadly my mom doesn't want me in her class since its an easier math class. the councilor said i can only switch if in 1st term i get 80 percent or higher and i got 78 so i can stay with her :)
having good teachers throughout high school made it so much better
Mxrvel I
Mine is so bad
Very true
Well aren't you lucky
i've never had a good teacher in high school yet!
then there is me, hating every teacher that i have
iraliex SAME
iRaliex: I felt the same way you do when I was growing up. But I became a teacher to try to change that and have more teachers like those in this video. Maybe you can too!
Some teachers aren't passionate about their jobs and just want money. But to those who actually inspire students and get them through their darkest times, and love what they do.. thank you so much. The world needs more people like them.
I'm not crying I'm not crying

That Thing You See At The Corner Of Your Eye Boy, do I have something to say to my old Chem teacher. They need to sign me up if they do decide to do one for the bad.
Stephanie Franco Lol. Mine would pretty much be ever social studies teacher I've ever had.
All my social studies teachers were cool as a person but as teachers they sucked. My chem teacher; however, just sucked in all kinds of ways.
Stephanie Franco lol I feel your pain
yes and then ask them why they became teachers
I'm not crying. You are crying

Hey 🙂❤️
Some of my teachers are actually really cool and make effort to have a connection with their students but I'm too shy and awkward. So annoying
me too :/

+Flor Portugal I hope you don't teach English. Lol jk

Laura Bonengel omg same
Laura Bonengel ohh same

I know that feeling 😢
The teachers at my school straight up saved my life. They went above and beyond for me, and I will never forget it.
How do I always end up on the part of KZhead that makes me ball my eyes out 😩😂
I had this amazing teacher who sadly committed suicide halfway through our schooling year. He was so bright, bubbly and he was just kind in general. I remember going on a school camp, and on the bus there, he told us that whoever sung would get some chocolates, so myself and a friend sung about 5 songs and we got so much chocolate! He got me into reading and he always had nicknames for everyone. It was so unexpected and out of nowhere. I actually remember him saying before he left on his last day at school "I'm not sure how long I'll be away for... but you'll have a new teacher for a while" and we never thought anything of it, apart from maybe he was going to be sick, or going on holiday, until a couple of days later our principal came into our class and told us, I remember a couple of girls just broke down, one in particular who had grown up with a semi-abuse family and no dad, and she said he was literally like her dad she never had. Pretty sad story, but he was so amazing, wish i got the chance to tell him that, although I was only 13 or so at the time.
Ruby C. It didn't really affect me as much as others, but you should definitely let him know you appreciate him. Never know what anyones going through tbh!
Mikayla Neil i wish I had a teacher like yours.
Always have him in your heart
PrincesaMikayla that is so sad maybe he already knows how much you guys appreciate him and he seems such a great guy bless him
PrincesaMikayla sorry for that :(
I wish I could do this with my Year 10 English teacher. She changed my life. It's because of her I'm pursing creative writing at a university level. I was so upset when she passed away last year.
stardustgalaxy17 awwww
stardustgalaxy17 thats so sad..... I hope you're happy now cause i know she wanted that too:)
stardustgalaxy17 sorry to hear ):
i've dealt with the same thing too. my sixth grade teacher was THE best teacher i had ever had. he was so upbeat and cared so much about his students. sometimes i would text him and he seemed like a regular kid. he was such a relatable teacher. then, in the middle of the year, he had to leave for "personal reasons". we were stuck with a boring sub the rest of the year and no one knew what happened. my original teacher couldn't come to our 6th grade promotion as well. :( then, a few months later in november, my friend told me he passed away from leukemia. i went to his funeral a few days later and i don't think i've ever cried so much. rest in peace mr. whiting : - )
gabby awwwww
I wanna see this done but teachers hear about things they did that permanently scarred their students and things that still haunt their students to this day
+Connor Mark as someone who was affected by this, by things a teacher said that still affect how I think and feel about myself, it'd be interesting to see the teacher's response. Do they feel guilt? Remorse? Do they know what effect their words and actions had or have on the student? Why did they say/do it in the first place?
I was watching this at work and I tried to fight the tears. Oh gosh that was hard. Thank you to the teachers who really do an impact on our lives. Thank you so much.
:)
For me it would be like *teacher arrives * "HELL NO, NOT HER AGAIN, I'M OUT OF HERE"
Elise C me
well then, you wouldn't of been in the interview to begin with
America Subero clearly you don't have any teacher to thank: * wouldn't have
Elise C if my 4th grade teacher came I'd be like "SOMEONE SAVE ME ITS THE DEVIL!"
Hope you enjoyed reading this very Long name I've never really had any bad teachers, just an awful principle. she basically chased away all the amazing teachers from my elementary school, now my younger brother will never get to see all the great teachers and old principle that I had.
I need to NOT watch these videos when I'm pmsing omg guys how do I stop crying
You don't XD
Miranda Hall same ikr
Miranda Hall i'm not even pmsing but I'm always crying my eyes out averytime haha
hHELP ME
Well that was unexpected. And from God, no less.
It's so sad that some teachers make such a difference in people's lives, but a lot of the time they never even know how big their impact is. This is so nice
these kinda teachers are like one in an 8 billion.
No, there are plenty good teachers.
@@toy5309 i don't think so
@Ash Singh good for you
I had a really close relationship with my 2nd-5th grade teacher. She basically filled the spot of my mother who isn't totally in the picture. I went to her house, she invited me to things, took care of me the best she could along with being a single parent herself. I love her a lot.

I can think of 3 teachers who made me feel extra special. 1. His name is Mr. Pacheco. He never was my real teacher but he taught in the next room over from my math teacher's class. He always waved hello to me and then after a few weeks we talked alot more. He would always walk me to my next class. Totally awesome person. He knows how awesome to me he was because even when I saw him out of school we'd always talk. I haven't seen him in a few years but I know I'll see him again someday. 2. His name was Mr. Slater. He always was there for me. I had a really rough year that year and I saw him sometimes out of school. He unfortunately passed away a few years ago. I miss him! 3. She wasn't a teacher but she was an aide. She always helped me when I needed it. The end of that school year she gave me her number and told me to talk anytime I needed to and she offered to take me out for ice cream. Unfortunately I tried calling that number in the middle of the summer and she didn't answer. October 1st of that year she passed away from lung cancer. I found out by another aide. I miss her so much.
Thanks to all my teachers... apart from the who said depression is a lifestyle choice... yeah, not too grateful for you.
My 6th grade English teacher was the absolute nicest "grandma" figured teacher ever. My father passed away in 6th grade from cancer, she was the first person to arrive at the viewing and funeral and sat and talked to my family for hours, crying with us. All the donations for the funeral went to our education fund, she donated a tremendous amount of money. A few years later, her husband passed away from a heart attack and we did the same for her as she did for us. She is an angel in disguise. ❤️
Aww bless all of your souls

When I get older I want to become a teacher, and I want to make a great difference in people's life. And to hear what these people said, that made me actually cry of happiness.
I'm from Norway, so here it's a little bit different...
Its vastly different in every country. im from germany and i am studying to become a teacher as well. i did a year of volunteer work in a school and enjoyed it so much that i went with it. the salary obviously isnt astronomical but you do not have the constant pressure of the capitalist economy and the salary is by no means bad either over here. you can live from it pretty decently. have your own house/flat a few years in and your job is safe. im not looking for 200k a year like my dad. not worth the stress imo. sure its hard work as well you should not underestimate it but i enjoy it and there is a good a amount of free time left.
About 25 yrs after graduating high school, I sent emails to some of my teachers, letting them know that, "this leaf that you cast upon the river of life is letting you know that you did a great job." It was pretty amazing the replies I received, and it was well worth doing, letting them know that they mattered.
This is the reason why i want to be a teacher.
Same
You’ll get little salary
yes Oh really. we’ll see how you pay your rent and bills when you get 2k dollars a month
Magjx who said i am going to be a teacher in the USA?
@@roza7723 girl wtf?
I'm a teacher myself and I really want my students to be the best and achieve their dreams 😍😄
Syed Salman Ali why is it illegal??
Syed Salman Ali cuz if it is then I might resign teaching cuz I love drawing anime as well
moodygirl 90 I would expect a teacher to spell "because" properly, but guess not... 😂😂
OK professor ☺ u win ....cuz its like I'm explaing to grade one students. .even they are much better🙃
cuz is a shorter way of writing because...people do that on the internet a lot because it's shorter to type, like how some people type u instead of you, but I'm sure it doesn't matter too much since we're not here to take spelling lessons..
My heart.. Just fell out my butt

I miss my elementary art teacher so bad. She was such an inspiration and taught me how to see the beauty in every little thing possible. She's the reason I paint and draw and play the piano. She helped me become who I am today and I never would've gotten here without her. Rest In Peace, Miss Cloud🙏❤️
I had a teacher I feel I should share. He was my seventh grade English teacher, named Mr. Potts. He was rather unique and eccentric, but he was very understanding and I regret not doing better in his class. I know he liked me, and all of my friends. I could go to him just to talk when I needed to, about life and home and literally anything. He was just a really nice person and a great teacher. I miss him.

There are two teachers who have changed my life. One teacher was for the worst, but the other teacher was for the best and somewhat counteracted the long term affects the other teacher caused me. It was at the end of the last school year back in June, and I was sitting in her class when somebody asked her about the tattoo she had of a fern leaf on her foot. Long story short, a pupil of hers had committed suicide a couple of years prior, and she had gotten the tattoo to symbolize the strength that pupil had. She was tearing up telling us about it, and I had been feeling really down (to the point of having suicidal thoughts - not that i'd act on them but they were still there). I just remember thinking to myself "I don't want to just be another tattoo." And that thought really encouraged me to find ways to control whatever I was feeling, and now I just keep remembering what she told us that day whenever those thoughts do slip into my mind. Thank you, Miss B.
I remember when taking a grade 12 calculus course, I had this fantastic teacher who was incredibly committed, and would do absolutely anything for her students to succeed. There were times I know she would stay with students helping them to the point she would have to sleep at the school. I remember one time, I had to take a test during another one of her classes. While I was in a pretty tough course with dedicated students, this was one of the lower level courses, and it was filled with students that didn't have the respect for the teacher that she deserved. I asked her after the test how she deals with that, and she said "Sometimes it can be tough, but you always find one or two students in those classes you can really inspire to learn and become better, and that makes it worth it" and I think that was the greatest thing a teacher ever said to me.
Why can't I have a nice personable teacher?
I wish I could tell my English teacher that... And yep. I'm crying.
Write a letter and leave it on their desk!
Erm that's kinda weird tho cuz I stop by everyday and he's my last years teacher. For me telling a teacher their awesome is like asking them out on a date. Plz don't ask why. I'm just so awkward around adults sometimes...
But thx
yeah. I want to tell my English teacher this as well. She is a great person, who shows me to be myself. And I would love to say that. But my Latin teacher deserves something like that as well.
Mare Plantinga heh, I see where you are from bud...
Here in the Philippines, we were taught that teachers were like our second Mother.
Same here in Arab countries, they are our second mothers and our friends
+ASAYousef ik because they help us like we are family
+niclna is that why Philippin as a country is so advanced in technology and have a great political/educational system. What i can observe is that your second mom failed.
Persian Life I never thought that you are a very stupid person. it's about respect you idiot
+niclna but your second mom failed you. she clearly didn't do her work well. and because of that, I'M idiot?
My year 7 science teacher was the best teacher ever. Me and my parents weren't getting along very well, she stayed after school with me for like and hour and a half just so I could talk to her and have company every school day. It was the best part of my days for me and I couldn't wait every time. She ended up leaving the next year and only told us the lust time we would ever see her at school (the last day) but, thankfully she live around the corner to my house so I get to see her still.
I am a first year teacher. I realized how much I liked my teachers growing up, but I never thanked them or told them how awesome I thought they were. We always expect our teachers to be there, so it never crossed my mind.
On my last day of college, I went to all the teachers that impacted my life regardless of how well I did in their class and told them how much of an impact they made on me.
I'm not crying! I just have something in my eye!
+VermilionLotus Sure you do........
mhmm
Possibly an eyeball?
Undertale reference.
What'd you catch?
I had a teacher who made this big of an impact. I had just started at an actual school after being homeschooled my whole life, and she was my 2nd grade teacher. I have so many great memories with her, she taught me how to read because I was stubborn and wouldn’t let my mom do it haha. She got cancer, recovered and then taught my 4th grade class before getting sick again. She passed away 3 years ago, I wish I could tell her what she’s done for me.
I hope to one day be able to thank my ninth grade biology teacher. After my suicide attempt, he was the only teacher who visited me in the hospital, the only teacher who didn’t force me to compete schoolwork directly after I came back, and the only teacher who didn’t treat me like broken glass. He was the only one who seemed to care about me even in my worst moments. I later left that school after ninth grade ended, and never got to take his chemistry class, which I’m still disappointed about. I ended up moving to a really good location and attending an amazing school though, and he was the one who encouraged me to leave. He really changed my life though, and helped me realize that life really is worth living, and that there are people worth living for. I will forever be grateful for him and everything he did for me
my teachers wont even make my 79.9 into a 80 smh
my teacher asked me to sit on the floor because I borrowed my friend a pencil
Lmao same! 😂😂😂😂 idek...
so these teachers remember these students when they had hundreds of different students?
my kindergarden teacher remembers me most of my elementry and middle school teachers remember exept that 1 person remembers me from all grades iv been in
Destiny Cat dang bro
Nathan Yang I'm gonna guess they remember the students that are active, and participate, maybe actually make conversation with the teacher.
Ninelle yeah sounds resonable
My teacher sent me facebook messages 3 years after school. I don't think she has any idea what a great impact she had on me
To my beautiful, kind and amazing high school English teacher: Thank you. Thank you so much. You changed my life and made me believe I was worth it. You are the reason I am studying to become a teacher myself.. Because you inspired me into going after something I was too afraid to try.
this hit me man.
Crux VII should have been ready
No, I'm not crying...my grandma is choping onions...

Hope this moment will happen to me :'(

Matthew Vlogs and Gaming ew nope, dat is just gross
I love some teachers so much, thanks mr Hoffman for teaching me
I'm crying in my university public library. This is beautiful, thank you for posting.
Dear teachers: You give me crippling depression and put me in situations that activate my crippling anxiety.
omg there are a few teachers who have actually saved my life. they helped me with my mental health, my struggles in school and they saved my life. i would not be here without them. they encouraged me to be myself, and they believed in me, never forgetting to show it. those teachers are the best and i owe my life to them.
My teachers are only part of why I can look back on my high school days with fondness. They helped me to find interests I didn't know I had, to cultivate the ones that were already there and inspired me to keep on learning new things. It's always a treat to see them and it was a treat to be in their classes. ❤️
when the teacher whispered those precious words i just started watering my plants with my eyes
I wish my violin teacher could have known how much I enjoyed and appreciated his lessons. he was always funny, and kind and made me laugh - one day I went back after holidays and he was off "sick" - in reality he was very depressed. I haven't seen him since and I still think about him wondering how he's doing.
Bee M me too not all teacher can make great in pack at students most teacher who do dont know
Even the “mean” teachers....have happy moments tbh, my class was just full of lil devils 😂
My history teacher was always there for me when my parents got a divorce. She noticed how depressed I was even though I tried to hide it. I'm so grateful for everything she has done for me, really.
I'm not crying, I'M NOT CRYING.
just onions
Amna Umar your eyeballs are just sweating. Obviously
i wish i could say things like that about my teachers
I cried so hard....i have a teacher like them
This almost made me cried.. now it feels like I want to tell my math teacher how I feel, she is my FAVORITE teacher.. I always feel like I'm her favorite student somehow, not sure tho.. 😄
I'm not crying, you are
bitterbby do you have a mcr shirt on in your profile Pic omg
bitterbby i luv u rn
demon darkness YES I DO BAHA
bitterbby I'm not crying, just sweating through my eyes
bitterbby No, I'm laughing. Because I'm a real villain.
My mom teaches English as an adjunct, often the remedial English courses for students struggling with basic grammar/sentence structure. Every once in a while, she'll get an email or a card from a student like this. It's often someone who was difficult or so quiet in class she barely knew them. She's been told she was the best teacher they ever had. She's been told she was the first person to ever compliment any of their writing. It's amazing how much a little encouragement and belief in someone can impact them and give them the courage to keep going.
Props to my English teacher who spent the whole class telling us about her life instead of making us study, although it did make me seriously depressed and suicidal, still ly thooughhh.
this is so empowering and pure. so many teachers are under appreciated and go above and beyond for so many of their students. they’re so much more than just teachers
I had this teacher in third grade, who was the worst teacher ever. She bursted kids confidence levels, and shouted at me and ONLY me the entire time. Most kids in my class were absent from stress and one girl even had to go to hospital. After that year, I was a quiet and shy student and i never talked to my teachers, even if I really needed to, like for help with work.
That weird polish girl wow.
Wow.. this happend with me. Grade 1 and Grade 2 were the best years of my life, I would always go to a teacher if I need help. Then came grade 3 I hated my teacher yelled at everyone, I think she thought she was being strict but she was just being mean to me, now I lost a lot my self confidence and I only like to talk to people that I have a nice bond with :C
For me 3rd grade really changed my life in a good way. My teacher was really supportive and I was so shy I barely said a word but with the help of my teacher I was the loudest girl in the class :,,,)

This was beautiful. But what about the not so encouraging teachers? I sure would love to reunite with a teacher that used to pick on me and humiliate me in front of the class when I was 10. I was such a quiet kid who got bullied by a classmate. We had this box that we could post confidential letters in to tell the teacher about any worries we had. I went in one day, and she sits me in a room with the bully, and he's holding my letter whilst she's lecturing me about lying, saying she wants to speak to my mother after school. Messed up! I never had any other trouble with teachers throughout school, but this lady really seemed to hate little me.
That's horrible :( awful teachers, shouldn't be allowed to work in education, especially with kids
Ikr! I had this teacher who picked on me a lot cause I was quiet and not that intelligent...one time he said I was wasting everyone's time by not answering his science question. He said I was gonna cry then be sent to the hallway and say that crying doesn't work on him and that he would then send me to the office...the entire time he said that I had a blank stare on my face but inside I wanted to cry cause he was sorta making fun of me for being quiet and letting the whole class know what he thought of me...a weak girl who cries easily for being told not what to do Another time he said I could get expelled from the school for not handing him an extra test sheet. How was I supposed to know cause 99.9% of the time, the last person getting the sheet gives the teacher the extras and I didn't know the person to my right left his desk cause he always sits there and was present in class that day. I just assumed he went to the washroom and left the paper on his desk. Didn't wanna look around for him cause it would look like I was trying to look at others' papers and cheat. Well lucky me cause I guess he sat somewhere else for the test:p the teacher said it was all my fault and that he would e-mail my parents
and another time with the same teacherXD he said something but I didn't know he was talking to me cause you know, you're supposed to give *eye contact* to the person you're talking to and not look down. I just thought he was talking to the person sitting beside me but nope. He talked to me about how I'm rude for not answering him. I then said, "Sorry, I thought you were talking to someone else. Can you repeat what you said?" Then he said, "Hehe, I'm not saying it again." then just walked away;-; He was a stem teacher(science technology engineering, and math) and I was one of the unlucky few who got the mean and scary teacher instead of the other stem teacher that was the COMPLETE opposite and I really mean COMPLETE opposite. He was really nice, funny, and actually cared to explain stuff that was confusing instead of just laughing and ignoring you

+Juicy Pear i had this teacher in junior high who i just never seemed to be good enough for and who never noticed when i did anything well in her class. at the end of the year the teachers had to approve you joining any honors classes in highschool and she straight up denied my one for science class because she said i wasnt smart enough for them. it really put a dent in my confidence and i only signed up for the english one because it was my best subject and my mom basically forced me to after she found out what the teacher said to me. i passed with an a, almost 100 percent grade the entire year. and the science class? i only missed 1 question on both semesters finals and passed with almost 100 on all of my classes including my science one. so i ended up taking more honors and ap and eventually took the ap bio class as a separate science credit on top of my ap physics in the same year. i got a 5 on both exams. so basically my teacher destroyed my confidence for no reason. despite...
I've had this history teacher for two years in a row now and he's honestly the best teacher I've ever had and there's some kids who say shit about him and it pissed me off so much cause he's such a good teacher and such a good person and he's the only teacher that gets me through school
lmao this wouldve been different for me, most the teachers ive had are miserable & annoying
aria tsunami I have to be really real with this, and this is true.
aria tsunami same for me except all my past teachers really sucked. Now I actually care about my teachers
aria tsunami feel ya
one time i dropped my pen and my teacher told me to stop disturbing the class
After watching this I cried. A lot. And then I drove to my elementary school to visit my 3rd grade teacher, who was my biggest inspiration. He became my friend when he saw me sitting alone in a bus in 2nd grade. I didn't have any friends back then because I was "weird". He thought I was cool. Anyways it's been 13 years since I had him, I popped by and thanked him. He still remembers me, he teared up after I told him I'm pursuing a degree in a university now. Teachers go through so much crap and are so under appreciated, we should remind them how big of an impact they have on some of our lives.
i feel like we dont thank great teachers enough and show them how much we appreciate them for everything that they've done for us. they're so important and i feel like they dont know that enough.
I actually loved my teachers. I was so disgusted to see how disrespectful other students were to teachers. I felt how hurt they can feel while teaching and not being appreciated. I wish I could see my teachers rn and learn more from them.
Miss stec.. she's my mom. I refuse to call her my teacher. I call her mom in the hallways, outside, in the class, etc. she answers. She calls me her son. She makes sure I'm okay. She'll literally spend HOURS talking to me; making sure that I'm really okay. She talks about anything and everything to me. She tells me about her life, her kids life. She tells me so much. She opens up to me and I open up to her. There's nothing in this entire world that I wouldn't do for her. I'd give her my life. If she needed a heart transplant you bet I'd give her my heart. I'm not even joking. At all... she's so much more than this woman in school. I'm really her kid. I feel like her kid. I'm 17 and every time I'm with her, in her class, i feel this motherly instinct overwhelming my presence as she throws me a bag of granola or something cause she can tell I didn't eat that morning. I can't wait to do something special for her. I love her with all my heart. I've never been so emotional about a deep connection with someone. I'm a 17 year old guy, I'm looked at as a jock. But I change when I'm with her.. she's my mom. Always will be.
i still hate school
Princesslay#1 omg lol same
Princesslay#1 4 exams in 2 days yep with you on that
The Joker I had 8 in two days
Armando Arias how did you even survive
Princesslay#1 I think so
I'm crying so hard right now, cause there are these two teachers that have changed my way of looking at life in general, I might only have known them for half a year now but before I came to the boarding school I was ready to leave this world, but they provide me with hugs and love and I'm so grateful for that.
This is why I want to be a teacher. The force you can have to not only educate, but to touch and change young minds, forever. It might just be High School, or Middle School, but if you can change someone, it's for life, and if you can do something positive for a young person... It's just amazing. There are so many bad teachers out there, but we can't forget the good ones. Amazing inspiration for anyone thinking of becoming an educator.
Aww that made me cried T.T I'm a teacher myself and I love my students so much, I just hope all the best for them and I also hope I make a positive impact on their life. They deserve to know how good, strong, beautiful and intelligent they are !
That's sweet.
"T.T"
I guess you aren't a English teacher, am I right?(No offense) :D!
Xiao Wei OMG! Do you like Kpop?!
Riven Main If you want me so hard to be that guy: ".. AN English teacher...' He writes such a nice comment and all you got to do is to correct him. Congrats.

BrysontheGhost Gaming I had one of these teachers. She was so great :)
BrysontheGhost Gaming Most people do, they just don't see it.
vBaku Great comment.
I'm no- I'm definitely cryjng
My seventh grade English teacher is possibly the best woman I've ever known (other than my mom and grandma). She was the kindest and most gentle woman. She developed my love for literature and I can never thank her enough for being a terrific woman.
