“A teacher affects eternity, he can never tell where his influence stops.”
Today is National Teacher Appreciation Day. It falls on the first Tuesday of every May and is celebrated for a full week, “honoring teachers and recognizing that lasting contribution they make to our live,” says the National Education Association. A teacher is one of the most important adults in a child’s life. They provide children with a safe, caring learning environment that encourages students to learn and make morally right choices. Being an Assistant Teacher at a local Preschool, I find teaching fulfills me with the utmost gratification. It allows me to make a difference in a child’s life and take part in his/her growth. We are educators, mentors and friends which surpasses all the negative aspects that may come along with this position.
Most teachers are shown their gratitude at the end of the school year. Take this opportunity to show how much you appreciate your teacher. A student can show their gratitude by giving their teacher a gift or just by saying a simple thank you.
