A Thank You To The Teachers Who Changed My Life

Throughout the years I have had so many amazing teachers that have taught me lessons I will never forget. I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the incredible teachers I have had since I was as little as five years old.

A thank you to Mrs. Stebbins, my kindergarten teacher that taught me how to have fun while learning.

A thank you to Mrs. Werth, my first grade teacher, who taught me books were almost as good as friends.

A thank you to Mrs. Ogden, my third grade teacher who taught me writing can be beautiful.

A thank you to Mrs. Callahan, my fifth grade teacher, who showed me how special I was.

A thank you to Mr. Wilson, my sixth grade technology teacher, who showed me tech is for girls too.

A thank you to my seventh grade English teacher Ms. Marshall, to which I was the favorite.

A thank you to Mr. Deblois, my eighth grade math teacher, who was the first person to have me understand math.

A thank you to Mrs. Crosset, the tutor that also made me understand math and one of the kindest people I’ve ever met.

A thank you to Ms. Smith, my name twin and my eighth grade English teacher, who pushed me for the good.

A thank you to Mr. Sweeny, my eighth grade health teacher, where I learned what “bisexuality” was.

A thank you to Ms. Thiele, my freshman Earth Science teacher, who wouldn’t let me fail even if I wanted to.

A thank you to Ms. Sullivan, who reminded me so much of my late grandma Vera, who cheered me on when I felt no one was there.

A thank you to Ms. Michele who was also there for me when no one else was.

Most of all, I would like to thank my amazing sophomore teachers I had at the first year of my new school.

Ms. Yaddaw, my sociology and English teacher who taught me how to think.

Ms. Kelly (Mrs. Delgado), my social studies teacher who taught me how to be kind.

Ms. Baldwin, my other English teacher, who taught me how to write what I think.

Mr. Sampson, my science teacher, who taught me how to laugh.

And finally, Mr. Barbano, my algebra teacher sophomore year and he was one the realest people I have ever met.


As this school year begins and the leaves begin to turn and teachers begin to teach, I will always remember these teachers. These teachers that made me part or who I am today. My education is one of the most valuable things to me and through out all my life. I make a promise to everyone in this letter, that I will continue my education and be successful. As John F. Kennedy once said "The goal of education is the advancement of knowledge and the dissemination of truth."

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
