I would like to tribute this to one of my favorite teachers throughout my years at Lawrence Middle School, Mr. Hughes. The most important teacher in my life I would have to say would be my 8th grade history teacher Mr. Hughes my 8th grade history teacher. The way he taught was perfect it was easy to intake all the information’s because he would make learning the lesson fun. For example I remember we were learning about slavery and how north and south had fought, he divided the class into two one was the south and the other the north. We had to argue and battle why we each side wanted what they want and we would have to back it up and the winning team would get money or some kid of reward. He made me look at school from a whole another perspective. If it wasn't for him I would probably not doing so good in school an not caring about graduating. If it wasn't for his teaching and his lectures he gave me I would not be the person I am now, nor would I have been close to graduating because before him I did not really care for school and learning. He told me so many things that you needed in life and how to become successful and the things you need to do to accomplish it. I remember we were selling chocolate for a school fundraiser an he bought a whole box of me just to show he cared. He was an amazing teacher who i will never forget. He was the only teacher who i liked listening lectures from because he just made them so much interesting changing his voice or the tone whatever it was he needed to do to make the class stay awake an learn he did. Mr. Hughes has past way he was sick an got injured and never got better he was a very wise man. I would just like to say R.I.P Mr. Hughes the teacher who made a difference in not my life but in many more others lives and just the way life is looked upon. He lived his life to the fullest I believe he did everything he wanted to he would always have these crazy stories he would tell us give us life lessons on what to do an the wise things. Their isn’t a day that goes by an I don’t think of him. His sense of humor which made learning so much fun. His Aphorism’s he would speak of an compare them to life. That’s why I wanted to do a tribute to him because of him being one of my favorite teachers throughout my years learning. Mr. Hughes is the most important teacher that i have had in my life.

My name is Grace Arvesen and I am currently a sophomore at Marist High School. When I think of great teachers, although I’ve had many, one comes to mind right away. Her name is Colleen Biszewski and was my 7th and 8th grade math and science teacher at Queen of Martyrs School. Not only did Mrs. Biszewski prepare us academically, but she helped us practice good Christian values. In addition, she was accessible for all students, treating everyone with fairness.…

You're one of my favorite teachers I've ever had. English and writing played a part, but the way you taught and related to kids on their level was pretty awesome to watch. I thought it was funny how you'd go off subject at a moment's notice and I remember you even bringing up two of my favorite subjects in class - Punk Rock and graffiti. I was especially impressed by your broad-mindedness and unrelenting support for the underdog.…

I clearly remember my Algebra teacher, Mr. Craig Lipscomb. He treated every student with respect. He expected his students to follow his instruction, lest they get it wrong. I also clearly remember taking shortcuts which invariably led to incorrect answers. He would gently lead me back to his instruction and methods, which invariably led to the correct answers: Imagine that! After a few weeks, I finally understood that Mr. Lipscomb was leading me in the right direction. All I had to do was listen, follow his instructions, and do my homework.…

In my last 15 years of school I’ve had many good teachers as well as bad teachers, but none of them compare to my football coach/computer teacher Mr. Pasch. Mr. Pasch not only taught me a lot about computers and football, but also much more about life. Mr. Pasch taught me that quitters never win, that when you quit the first time it will be easier to quit again and for the rest of your life you will always quit when it gets hard. Mr. Pasch installed in me his discipline, respect and motivation.…

Halfway through my senior year he told us he was diagnosed with stage four cancer and suddenly the thought of losing such a thoughtful and caring teacher became too real. During the second half of the year he rarely made an appearance, but when he did, he was full of cheerfulness and positivity that overwhelmed not only me, but my whole class. I began to spend more time with him learning about his life and all the adventures he had been on. At the end of the year for my leadership class, I was asked to make a teacher appreciation card, and without even thinking about it I began to write mine addressed to Dr. Albright.…

To begin with, I am very thankful to Mrs. Larson, my high school teacher in 12th grade from Visions In Education independent school. She was a very awesome teacher and I can say that if it wasn’t for her support and her motivation for helping me motivate myself I don’t know if I were to obtain my high school diploma in 2010. She has influenced me in a great way. For example, she would keep me going by laughing and talking about an interesting topic just to keep me encouraged and focus on my school duties. Furthermore, she is a dedicated teacher who will continue to monitor my work in school in order for me to be consistent in my writing in English. Lastly, Mrs. Larson is a good coach on my English and reading that she would even slow down and be super patient in order for me to comprehend on my reading and writing materials. I can even go to her for personal and educational counseling. In the end, Mrs. Larson was a great mentor to me through out my last year in high school, and for her support today, I believe that I have become a better reader and writer.…

The teacher that had the most impact on me was Mark Whitney. Before I came to MiraCosta college, I was in Japanese high school which I hated it. I saw some of the teachers are very unhelpful and passionless, and they did not care about me since my score was always the low group in the entire student of the same grade. They pretended to care about my, but every time I knew it was a lie. Therefore, I did not expect that much about the professors when I first came here. However, when I started taking his class the way I think changed a lot. First of all, he was passionate about teaching, which surprised me. Now, after taking so many Child Development classes I know most of the professors are very passionate and helpful for me, but at that time,…

First I want to tell you with whom I honor, with whom I have, learned to respect, and who deserve the outmost admirations. The teachers I am talking about work hard to do a great job, because, above all, it is a kind of responsibility so to speak towards their students and relevantly toward themselves. I have had several teachers in my years as a student both in the primary and secondary schools among which there were only few whom I felt to fit the description above, maybe most of them were good in their own way, but one cannot be sufficient in all ways or I may also have misunderstood them. However, the teacher that I chose as deserving of the “My Favorite Teacher” earned this title due to the care she showed to each of her students through her teaching, personality, and the all the fun had in her class is Ms. Fleming my writing teacher. Ms. Fleming is an open minded, caring person who seemed to love what she is doing. Ms. Fleming is more than a teacher to me; she is a person you could go to with a problem and she would try and help you find the answer. She would help you, but expected you to put the work into finding out for yourself how to do something. She always came across as someone who cared about every student as if they were her “children”. Ms. Fleming is like a book that gives you the right information that would help you on getting a six on the FCAT writing. About 95% of her student’s agree that Ms. Fleming spent each day preparing us for the FCAT writing in thirteen days. The first time I walked into the classroom I notice a flaming red headed teacher sitting down. I thought that she would be a boring, and mean teacher giving her student’s a lot of homework and essays to write. Every word that comes out of her mouth sounds like music to my brain. When it comes to teaching she doesn’t let out a lot of stress, most of the stress comes from whether or not her student’s would receive a four or higher on the FCAT writing. When I’m in class Ms. Fleming have…
