Well it's the end of the school year again... and for once I am not returning in september! My last exam is tomorrow, and I don't think it has fully kicked in yet that I'm graduating high school! I'm so excited for the bigger and better things that await me! Before I completely leave high school behind, I wanted to thank a certain teacher that I hope will read this soon! Seeing as teachers don't have yearbooks, this seemed like a good idea!
Mr. Rama,
I am crazy appreciative of everything that you have done for me this year. Although I don't think you could have handled Eena and I in another class together, I kind of wish that I had you for a teacher before grade 12! You're constant support and feedback has made me want to write on a regular basis and develop more as a writer. You're a great teacher and I've never enjoyed myself more or felt better about my work then I have in your classes. The fact that you had confidence in my writing when I didn't always feel so great about it really means a lot. You can count on seeing a novel or a screen play written by me sometime in the future, and just know that without you and grammar smart (of course) it would not of been possible!
Thanks for all the snacks, the laughs and the good times! Keep up the great teaching, you're awesome at it :)
p.s. sorry about the over use of the word "within" on my exam...
Thanks again and peace out Sir Wil :)
Hey Candace,
ReplyDeleteI checked my blog for the first time in months today and was so happy I did. Thank you so much for your kind words. I loved teaching you this year. You absolutely made both my senior English classes for me. So often teachers work with kids who don't really want to learn. When someone like you - someone so smart and talented to begin with but someone who also really soaks up what we teach - takes our classes, every effort is worthwhile. I am so glad you are going to keep writing because you actually have something to say, and you say it so well. You rock Candace. I would say good luck in September, but I know you are going to make your own luck. If you need help with anything, though, let me know.
Mr. Rama (I guess Jason now that you've graduated)
