When we're kids there are adults who come and go in our lives. They may only be around for a very short time, however they can have a great impact. One such group are teachers and although I'm no teenager, there are a few I still remember fondly. The thing is, at no time did I ever thank any of them for what they taught me, or nurtured in me and I should have.
One such teacher was only in my life for one year and sadly I know he has passed away, but if it hadn't been for him I would have never kept on writing.
For many children #teachers are the only bit of stability in their day-to-day lives and the profession doesn't always get the thanks it deserves. But, this week has been #TeacherAppreciationWeek and I just want to thank you guys for being our fountain of knowledge.
Teachers are getting brow beaten and pummeled in the U.S. They deserve better. I taught for six years before I had my girls. It's a hard job.
ReplyDeleteI know Judy they do in UK too. I have no vested interest, I just think that we should give them credit where credit is due.
