504 Entries for “teacher”

  1. My teacher is a real interesting woman. She’s sixty-five and under five feet, but boy is she ever feisty. She drives to school every day in her black VW Beetle, covered in flames, metal music blaring.

  2. mom. She taught me how to read. She used brightly colored plastic fridge magnets to teach me my numbers and letters. Not many moms would take the time to do that now.

  3. There was a teacher I had during one of my years in summer school. He always rode his bike to school rather than his jeep, he was a vegetarian, and he spoke his mind, even though he was rude most of the time. This rude, and mellow man, was the only teacher that I had the pleasure of learning from and becoming infatuated with.

  5. Teacher! Oh I remember teachers. They would always think they were better than ervyone. In their simple minded ways. Regurgitation the words from a thick book written by the winners. What I think of when I see teacher…. Is a babysitter. Unless you talking about a “real” teacher outside of the educational system. Teacher….

  6. He moved my fingers into different shapes. I copied the shapes he was making with his own hands. “What did I say?” I asked as he set his hands down on the table.
    “Your name.” He said, a little soft for the environment.
    “How do you spell your name?” I asked and began to copy the shape of his hands once again.

  7. someone who is loving caring and loves to laugh. They can think at a level that is unlike any one else. Their passion for learning is contagious and a simple act can make a difference for someone who is in need. They are always smiling and are happy to encourage learning creativity and thought.

  8. teacher…what a holy person…helps you to leap out of your ignorance…

  9. I am a teacher. This is the core of who I am, and if I look to my history, it is the core of who I was long before I became one. I live to collect knowledge and repackage it for others, to help them find their way to what they need to know to live their lives, even if they don’t realize it. Teachers, even when they are called something else (like mothers or masters or guides) are the most central element in perpetuating our culture.

  10. teachers are people who dont only teach you about a subject, but about life. a teacher isnt only found in the classroom, but they are every where we go. friends…family…strangers

  11. my parents were both public school teachers which is why I am not a professional teacher – however, I’ve realized that I do have a gift of helping people learn – complaints, low pay, and lack of respect do not bode well for the profession.

  12. teachers seem not only to be those who we look to for advice in an outward way but the true teachers are ourselves. not only do we teach others but more importantly we teach ourselves through trial and error and various other means of exploring who we are

  13. learning an entry to living itself why did it forsake me, the words i was taught could never come to my lips for my own benifit but more to the amusement of others.

  14. i just wrote about this one, but i guess i’ll do it again. teachers are incredibly brave people. they give up so much of their lives just to enrich the lives of their students. often times, though, they end up learning more from their students, than their students do from them.

  15. We all have teachers in our lives. Some are physical people, others are experiences. Some are good some are bead. In the end though it isn’t about what you are taught. It is about how you apply what you know. So teach. Be taught.

  16. she stared at me through her thick spectacles probing my brain to find if i actually had just shared my thoughts and feelings some of which were not complementary to her in front of the entire class as if her hearing aids decieved her.

  17. I want to learn. But not just learn… I want to take in all characters of life; along with the elbows of existence. Learning is nothing but being taught, but being taught can be done so differently. The question is… who deserves the attention?

  18. my favorite teacher ever is mrs dyer. she was my cosmetology teacher, and i know that i have learned so much from her. i am so thankful that she gave me so many opportunities, such as competing in state, going to state, going to regionals and competing, everything she does relates back to her students and she is an incredible teacher.

  19. i finished finals today and wondered how often kids actually say thankyou after their teacher spent an entire year of their lives teaching them. its gotta be a harder job than it seems. college is so unnecessary.

  22. She writes on the chalkboard, simple equations, simple words. It means little to some, they don’t understand the beauty of

  24. I am a teacher. Teacher of Danish and English. I love it. I do. I wish more people would appreciate, just how hard it can be – being a teacher. But at the same time. It’s okay. As long as I change someone’s life, I’ll be fine.

  25. Teachers like apples. Apparently. Although I hardly ever see my dad eat apples, and he is a teacher. I don’t know how that rumor got started- would you call it a rumor? Why are there always apples on teachers’ desks in movies? Strange. I think they’d like books more. Oh they’re book worms! And worms live in apples.

  26. Teachers are an inspiration. Without them, what would we be? Teachers are the parents of education. They nurture, guide, educate, inspire, and provide hope for a better future. Teachers ARE our future.

    Gabrielle
  27. She wanted to be a teacher. Or at least that was her backup plan. The idea confused him. He saw no merit in it. He found it to be boring. But that was not what she told him. One day, out of the blue he asked her, “Why is it that your back up plan is teaching Haruhi?” She replied, “Because if I am not a lawyer, if I cannot help those who are already in trouble I want to teach others not to ever find themselves in that situation.” He nodded back at her slowly in complete amazement of the person he loved.

  28. Teachers aren’t just the kind that you meet at school. They aren’t adults either. They can be a dog, a cat, even your best friend. All a teacher is, is someone who respects your learning and will teach you. You can learn all sorts of things, but it doesn’t necessarily have to be in school.

  29. i have many teachers. i don’t like all of them.. some are mean some are nice. i like teachers that give me special treatment! like my principal. hahahah. :) oh yeah. because he lets me do what i want when i want!!!

  30. I need a teacher maybe I don’t really want one I’m just thinking one would be particularly helpful with all this web/computer stuff I’m attempting to do today. I don’t know if I’d want one around full time though they tend to get a bit uppity like they know all don’t they? Maybe I’m wrong I mean, there were several in the younger grades that I enjoyed immensely.

  31. a person who teaches you about academic things. Might not be necessary for life skill learning.

    Mr Miagi.

  32. My Dad is a teacher. He is a chorus teacher at my high school. He is a good man, but a better teacher. When I look at my Dad walking through the halls, I see him belonging just as well with the student body. The kids in his class adore him. But he’s my Dad, which makes it hard to recognize his popularity.

  33. As old as the teacher was, she was still agile enough to dodge the incoming spitballs that were aimed for her head. She then turned around and stood there with a smile as if she had done something amazing.

  34. I once had this amazing teacher who used to say “No one can know everything until everything is known.” I used to think hard about what this meant. That the world is ours to discover and learn about and maybe school teaching isn’t as important as self-teaching and learning. Then I set out on the mission to be my own teacher, and ever since, I have been learning and discovering the world for what it is, not what we are told it is.

  35. A teacher can be many things, a mother, a mentor, someone who cracks you with a whip when you disbehave. A teacher can be many things, loving, stern, wise, and even silly. A teacher can be many things, mine is a mother, a mentor, a loving, wise teacher.

  36. My teacher is my mom, she teaches me in school and how to play stuff. she teaches me all the time, like how to play tic tac toe and any game I don’t know. She teaches me about how to make happy faces and everything. The End.

  37. There was once a teacher in a valley far away. This particular teacher taught unicorns. The unicorns loved their teacher because of her lovely attitude towards them. They lived happily ever after…the end.

  38. I appreciate very single teacher I ever had — in and out of the classroom. Even the teachers that were not so great taught me lessons, even if they were how I did not want to conduct my life. I have evolved into teaching in various ways myself. I have always been the kind of person who likes to share fun, interesting, or meaningful things with other people. Thank heavens for teachers!

  39. What is a teacher? A teacher is one who teaches others to learn. The best teachers to not just ‘feed information’ to their students, but teach their students how to find things out for themselves. They inspire others to seek out the truth for themselves. Life is much better for the teachers that live in it!
