For the next month, you can honor the great teachers who made an impact on your life by submitting your thank-you note on ThanksForTeachingUs. Aren’t these heartfelt stories wonderful? They make me proud to be a teacher! You can submit your story here.
What would you say to a former teacher? How have your teachers inspired you, friends? Honor them today! xoxo
P.S. The one to Mom made my heart swell…

Aww that's a really sweet idea, I had a geography, sociology teach who really inspired me to climb up the education ladder as high as I could. She was the first person who actually believed in me and thought me smart enough to get to a top university. she'd probably not like where i've ended up (retail) but its just a stop gap!

rachel, that's awesome! you can do anything! i love your attitude…a friend of the family went back to school to get her financial planners license when she was in her '50s, so it's never too late!

So cool! I want to write one for sure!
Katie says
That's so cool!
One of my high school teachers is pretty much the entire reason I ended up majoring in English. Sadly, she passed away before the end of that school year. When I graduated with my BA in English last year, I whispered a little prayer of thanks for her life…teachers can mean so much!
Melissa Blake says
yay for English, Katie! That was my minor in college. 🙂
