Teacher Appreciations

Hey Ms. Ko! This is Steven Le, and for teachers appreciation week, I just wanted to express gratitude and recall what you taught me beyond academics, and to do so, I want to talk about a story that happened in my 9th grade. For some reason that I still don’t know of even today, I carried a really strong, foul scent to my classes. I wasn’t aware of the smell until break started, and so coming into your class (3rd period), I was full of emotions and was really embarrassed, resulting in myself

Hello Coach! In honor of teachers’ appreciation week, I just want to let you know how thankful I am to know you! Yes, I am obviously not your student, I’m just one of the players on your Water Polo team. However, that won’t stop me from expressing my gratitude towards you. Even with my interesting plays during Water Polo, you still keep patient and teach me and tell me what I’m doing wrong in the nicest way possible. You still encourage me to play even during my bad days. Most importantly, you

Hi Ms. Nguyen! I wanted to take this opportunity, especially considering that it is Teacher’s Appreciation Week, to express my gratitude. You are beyond a Statistics teacher. Your smile and kind words can brighten up the mood of the whole class. I appreciate how understanding you have been every time a person does not understand a lesson. I understand it can be quite frustrating constantly teaching the same lesson over and over again, but I hope you know that your efforts do not go unnoticed. I

There was this one time where I came to class late during a test, I wasn’t able to hear that we weren’t supposed to write on the paper with questions, so I wrote on it. When I finally noticed that I wasn’t supposed to write on it as I turned it in, I told you about it, and you just said it was fine and not to worry about it. I want to thank you for this because I was worried that I would have to redo the test, which other teachers will probably make me do. You made chemistry really easy to

Dear Ms. Jay, Since it’s Teacher’s Appreciation Week, I thought I would let you know how much you have impacted my life. Taking your AP Psychology class as a Junior sparked my love for the humanities classes, and I am now going to be studying at the College of Letters and Sciences at Berkeley! Although AP Psychology was very rigorous, I value the experiences I had in that class very much because it taught me how to be a better student and create an effective work ethic for myself. From what I

Hi Mr.Flournoy! I don’t know if you remember but I was your second-period student for history sophomore year. I wanted to take this time to appreciate you for teachers' appreciation week. I know that it may be very hard to teach especially during distance learning but I know you can do it! I really enjoyed your class, especially some of the activities we did, and the videos we would watch were very entertaining. When I have late work I appreciate you letting me turn them in and increase my

In March, I was going through a lot with school where I felt at my lowest. I had reached out to you because I needed someone to talk to, especially someone I knew could help me with school. We set up a zoom meeting, and even though I was nervous and scared to reach out to anyone, let alone a counselor, you reassured me that everything would be okay, and that’s all I wanted to hear. I felt like a huge weight off my chest, knowing that someone knew I was struggling, and offered to help. Thank you
