For you


I was told you would be the best teacher we would ever get, but I never fully understood the magnitude of what this statement meant until this year. You've taught me so much outside of literature (which is a lot seeing as how much you have taught us about language, and motifs, and novels) that I do not even know where to begin. You've taught me about myself and about others. I now know how to see both sides of the picture and how to enter the "on going conversation" of the world.


I don't think a day ever went by when we didn't complain about something in the beginning of the class, but you were always there to listen. Other students and I have decided you should change AP Language to Life Lessons 101 because what we learn transcends the classroom.


My mom wants me to be a teacher so I can be just like you and both of my parents have the upmost respect for you and your teachings. What they do not know, however, is that you are the AP Langers' mother away from home and that just like you have always been there for us, we'll be there for you!
