ABSTRACT

It is often said that we remember two groups of teachers-the really good ones, and, of course, the really bad ones!

Please take a moment to reflect on the best teacher you ever had. You’ll probably be amazed at how much you can recall about that classroom. You may be able to remember some of the students, what the room looked like, one or more exciting activities or events that occurred, and possibly even some of the daily routines. But even if you are not able to recall any of that, you will surely be able to recall how you felt in that classroom. And more than anything, you remember the teacher-the teacher who brought joy and happiness and success into your life, the same teacher you still carry in your heart as you read these pages.
