The teacher thought it was very good; too good in fact.She failed me for it as she didn't believe it was mine. So, for my efforts, I got an F after her words said it should have had an A. Never bothered much after that. |

My favorite subject. The teacher was not nice to me. She only helped the popular girls. We had a report to do. I worked really hard on it, did pencil drawings of cells that looked exactly like the book. When I got it back, she wrote A, all this work really wasn't necessary! I gave up after that and started cutting her class. It seams to me a teacher can make or break a child. If they can't be encouraging, or offer positive words why did they become teachers in the first place? |

Most of my teachers considered me a waste of time, and treated me so. I can't remember their names, but I can remember the names of two teachers who had compassion on me, and worked with me, and I appreciate them to this very day. |
