What a great idea to bring together students from all her years teaching for her retirement. Teachers deserve more pay.

My daughter was very shy since birth! She never let anyone hold her except me, my husband, and my brother. She would run away whenever she met someone she didn't know, I couldn't bring her to malls, parks, zoos, bcz she would cry a lot whenever she is in the crowds. The only thing that calm her down is water, she loves bath time.
Kindergarten was tough for her, however this particular teacher, Miss Y, was very patient to her. Whenever my girl felt anxious, Miss Y would hold her. Sometimes for hours. From CCTV I saw that Miss Y brought her to the school pool, they swam together, played splashing water, and finally she got my daughter's trust. Slowly, my daughter agreed to join the class activites even though my daughter was still very clingy to Miss Y.
Miss Y also encouraged my daughter to walk in a fashion show competition. She cried several minutes before her turn but Miss Y promised her that she would wait at the end of the runaway to say hello. Luckily, my daughter won. She run toward Miss Y and said "I won, thank you" many times. That's when I realized that Miss Y has done what I should have... she taught my little girl to gain confidence. It was a life lesson that changed my daughter's life forever. Now, 7 years after, my daughter is an avid dancer, she is a ballerina, she is also a taekwondoin with one gold in international championship, she plays piano and violin at family gatherings, etc. She is very active and I couldn't stop her from trying new thing each year. I'm proud of her but deep inside I believe that it is impossible without Miss Y.
Last year we met Miss Y in a mall, she was pregnant. My daughter run toward her, hugged her, kissed her belly... I knew that my daughter felt the same about Miss Y as well. Miss Y is the best teacher that I've ever known. She is young, but very passionate in teaching.

I had one teacher, in high school. She was 100% the only reason I graduated. She was set to retire, a year before I graduated. She stuck it out that one more year because she wanted to see me get through and was afraid I might drop out if she left. (She was right, I would have) So, thank you Miss B if you happen to ever see this comment.

Ok the teacher who retired looked younger than her old students lmao

I remember when my 2nd grade teachers father passed away. we had a substitute for a week that would let us do anything so me and couple students who knew what death already was due to our loved ones passing away the year before made her some cards explaining what we did to help us feel better so she can feel better because she's a great teacher and we need her.

Schools back then: let’s do something nice for the teacher!

Schools now: lol no.

Teachers are second mother but second to none, respect to teacher is a must, we should have wings but grounded one, as in this video, it is such a joy to see this kind of appreciation shown to honourable teachers, finally, God bless all these students plus the teacher.

Your heart is slightly larger than the average human heart, but that's because you're a TEACHER.

When my teacher retired the entire school cheered because she was leaving

[myheartwillstopinjoy]

This touches me so much. My aunt who just recently retired, was a teacher for +30 years. She was an elementary school teacher and some of her former students are even older than me. She loved teaching so much, and always did her best to make classes fun and entertaining. She keeps contact with many of her students, and I'm sure she would've been moved to tears if her students made a surprise for her (she rarely ever cries, like I saw her cry once in my life).

My most memorable teacher ever was my 1st grade teacher, Sister Margaret Mary Kennedy. I've been anxious and socially awkward for nearly my whole life. My teacher that year saw a lot of potential and promise in me and worked hard to bring it out.

Even at just 7 years old, I must've known something. I was the top student in my class that year. When I later went to college, I got a degree in teaching and spent 6 years tutoring many younger students in early reading skills. Her influence showed in my techniques and many students did very well with me. (Including 2 with a double-whammy of learning challenges.)

Thank you, Sister Margaret Mary Kennedy, for all you did and how you helped me.

I was so lucky to have great teachers all throughout my school years. Lucky because i was such a disrespectful little punk sometimes and they had to deal with it haha. This is nice to see because these folks put up with too much.

[lillyaamer]

I pray for all my teachers everyday, Allah bless them

[sia-phqf]

My life changed because I had the best teacher, who trusted me so much

[MrBiyi]

Mrs Margarita Manosa, my third grade teacher is still alive and I am in touch with her, she helped me with homework because I had no support at home, I appreciate all of her help and time in teaching me, she was the perfect teacher, I praise God that teachers like you exist in this world Mrs Manosa, I hope you are around for many more years to come, I was so blessed to be one of your students.😊

People forget that teachers are humans too. They're here to help us learn, we should appreciate what they do for us instead of trying to make their life more difficult.
