33.Teacher's Day is next week, and we are assigned to write a letter to at least two of my previous teachers. This got me thinking. I've had about forty teachers since I started going to school. Each of them has indeed changed me in one way or another, but there are really only six that I will never forget. Those six teachers taught me more than just facts and formulas.________. They taught me how to think for myself. They encouraged me when no one else would even look my way. One moment I will never forget was when I was a freshman. I wrote something about Shakespeare's Macbeth. I always loved writing-but I was never any good at it. At least I thought I wasn't. But, the teacher, Ms. K, didn't agree with me. She was so impressed with my writing that she ran across the hallway to show the paper to another teacher. The fact that she thought my paper was good enough to show to another English teacher gave me a lot of confidence. Four years later, whenever I feel uncertain about my skills as a writer, I just remember that moment. It was a simple thing, but with that simple acknowledgement of my writing, she told me, without saying the words out loud, that I had something to share. The other five teachers have influenced me in similar ways. Each has taught me something that text books will never say. It is they who have taught me to grow as a person, to travel the path less traveled, to have passion for everything I do and to believe in myself. So this is my thanks to those teachers, not just the teachers I know, but to all the teachers.
