When I was five, I wanted to be a teacher. I would gather all my stuffed animals and toys and teach them all the new, exciting things my five-year-old brain could think of.

My most influential teacher was Ms. Lowry. From the very first day in her class, she created an environment that was warm and welcoming, making it easy for us to express ourselves without fear of judgment. What truly set her apart was her unwavering belief in each of her students, including me.
There were times when I struggled academically and doubted my abilities. However, Ms. Lowry always saw potential in me that I couldn’t recognize in myself. She took the time to provide extra help, encouraging me to ask questions and explore my ideas thoroughly. Her feedback was always constructive and insightful, which motivated me to improve and take risks in my learning.
Thanks to her belief in me, I gained confidence and developed a love for learning that continues to drive me today.

What makes a teacher great?
A Great Teacher
A great teacher is like sunshine, warming the hearts and minds of their students. They inspire a love for learning in even the most disengaged students and are friendly, approachable, and passionate about teaching. They are adaptable, patient, and good listeners, always seeking to improve themselves.
