Who was your favorite teacher. My favorite teacher was an 8th grade math teacher who taught at Gladewater High School in Gladewater, Texas. She was killed in a car accident this past year. I will miss her greatly. She was about 90 years old. She was such an inspiration to me. Her husband was an inspiration to my brother. They lived on a farm and he was the AG teacher at Gladewater. They were pillars of the community. They were always optimistic and upbeat. She was still going about doing for others. That was her way of giving. And I could drop in on her at anytime and she always had time for me. She never seemed to mind when I would suddenly show up on her doorstep without any notice. I know she was this way with all who came to see her as she did the same for my brother. She and her husbadn were such kind hearted souls. They will be greatly missed by all who knew them.

That is wonderful.
I found that students really enjoy science. That helps a teacher to be well liked. It is a little more difficult to like a Grammar or English teacher. Although, any one who really enjoys his or her subject of curriculum will ususally be well liked by the students because when the students how much their teacher is enjoying teaching that subject then they also will like the subject and the teacher.
