Teaching is a very noble profession that shapes the character, caliber, and future of an individual. If the people remember you as a good teacher, that will be the biggest honor that you can have.
Unfortunately, most of the times we remember teachers, not for their personality and their special way of teaching and attracting us, but for how bad they made us feel most of the time for just not being good enough for them, for considering their specialty the most important, for the horrible and disgusting act of labeling children. Because even though society learned us that we're all equal and we are not able to judge others, many teachers have shown us the contrary. But besides it, there are some of us that had the opportunity to find at least one good teacher that made us feel good, implicated and interested in what they said. For me, a teacher that I will always remember is the teacher of French that I had in middle school. In the beginning, the relationship between us doesn't seem to really work out, I felt insecure most of the time when she was around me, but after a while when I started to open up and be myself around her and try to be implicated and interested and after I have shown her my innocence, her attitude has changed and I have seen a new teacher in front of me.
Why do I like her, and why do I remember her with nostalgy?
It's simple! First, she was the one that showed me that your attitude towards others can influence a lot what people think about you and even though some would seem to be rude and cold at first if you know how to speak with them and try to understand what they're going through you'll discover totally new people in the ones that you have never thought. Hours with her have passed unseen, lessons in French have become easier because when you have a good teacher that knows how to teach her students with her skills and with her nice personality everything it's more understandable.
Education is the key to success in life, and teachers make a lasting impact in the lives of their students. The mediocre teacher tells, the good teacher explains, the superior teacher demonstrates, but the great teacher inspires so pay attention to what you have in front of you at school.
