In Science, she made learning fun. She spent countless hours preparing lab materials (and I’m sure spent a lot of her own money) before school and on her breaks to be sure we were able to have as many hands-on-experiences as possible. Until seventh grade, Science was my least favorite…
Sally Ride Science is an organization that encourages the youth to follow their dreams. Ride saw the impact that she made when got back from Space and how it affected everyone especially the kids. “ To be able to combine her love of science with her deep concern for helping women and young girls to me was the perfect combination of the things that she wanted to do in her life” (Moskowitz). Ride’s help means the whole world to many people in the scientific world. Whether she encouraged them when they were younger or they saw her on the television break the barrier between women and science. Sally Ride also founded Sally Ride Science to bring STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) in front of young girls who were discouraged from pursuing a career in the STEM fields. “Everywhere I go I meet girls and boys who want to be astronauts and explore space, or they want to be engineers. I want to see those same stars in their eyes in ten years and know that they are on their way” (Regan). Ride’s program affect the way that young people see science. In her organization, they can see how science affects the real world. Instead of seeing it on their homework, they see it in action right in front of them. In addition, Ride was a perfect example that hard work beats natural excellence; it encourages kids and it teaches them that it is never too late to purse…
As I looked around the room, I saw some guidance posters, and then I saw Mrs. Powell, my science and math teacher, and Mrs. Bilbrey, my social studies and language arts teacher. My mouth tasted bile as I looked into Mrs. Bilbrey's blue eyes, her greasy gray hair flowing over her shoulder.…

Everyone knows that one person who never seems to lose their cool or give up. My seventh grade teacher, Mrs. Shoemaker, was that person who never seemed to lose it. She taught many students who created a plethora of stress and heartache. Additionally, she helped me understand and finish hair-pulling assignments.…
Finally, her level of professionalism is magnificent. I find it extra impressive because she has a lot of academic problems to discuss and yet she is very careful not to cross that line. She says out loud what she is aloud to say, and keeps to herself of keeps to private conversation with the student what needs to be kept to a private conversation. That is where her leadership and collaboration come into play as well.…

On the first day of sixth grade, I entered science class thinking it would be like the sciences I studied before – I would…
Any time that we wanted to ask questions about something she was talking about, she would tell us to wait until after class to ask her. We didn't have any open discussions or class debates about a topic. We never got to hear other people's opinions, which was troublesome because there are a lot of debatable topics in environmental science. When we got to the section about global warming, I got excited because I thought that she would finally have a class debate. I got disappointed when I walked in and saw a TV in the front of the room. We watched Bill Gates' movie about global warming, which was the only thing we did for the whole topic of global warming. Due to the lack of open discussion about topics, I felt that everything we learned was…
What grade were you in? The teacher I choose to write about is a High School educator whose name is Mrs. Wright. I had her from my sophomore through my senior year. She was the resource teacher for these grades. I have test anxiety, have has it since I was a young child, and she could get me through without having a panic attack or having to go to the ladies room to puck. This woman was always there to support me while I work through the good and tough times in school no matter what it was. A kindhearted woman, that truly cared, no matter who you were, and what problem you may be facing. She always put a smile on your face and happiness in your heart. She always assisted me when I needed it or if I did not grasp something, she would make…
Mother Teresa stated, “Kind words can be short and easy to speak, but their echoes are endless.” It was those kind words that I remember from each individual teacher I had growing up. I remember spending countless hours learning with different techniques from different teachers. I’ll never forget Mrs. Marie Simcoe, for she was that kind voice echoing endlessly. She was my kindergarten teacher. I remember always wanting to help her and to be just like her. She was kind hearted and soft spoken. She taught with care and did everything she could to get her students to understand without a word of frustration.…
