Today is Teacher's day. I was thinking about my teachers who helped me to reach here till day. 1st is my parents, then my sister who always helped me in my studies, then my teachers who always encouraged me, then comes my Pastors who always inspired me to come forward in God's works, and then finally my Guitar teachers.
I thanks them all. And the Top most is God who taught me everything.

Teachers are so vital to our development and growth, There are some that didn't like school. To me, school was a great adventure.

Oh well, look at that! Didn’t know it was teachers’ day. Happy teachers’ day then to all the great teahers that I had. In school or in real life, we never run out of teachers and mentors. Without them, it will be a whole lot of trouble for us getting to learn a lot of things. Thank you for the patience, the passion and the endless support. Happy teachers’ day again! :)

My mom's a teacher---both 'my first teacher' (with my dad ... their 'reading to me' and 'encouraging me' had me reading by the time I was 3-or-4) and a public-schoolteacher.
And you're right about 'all the influences in your life' being forms of "teachers." But I think the 'teachers' this day is about are the ones who get "no reward from teaching you" (other than 'the assurance of knowing there's another little good citizen in society.')
And NOT GOD! Sure, he gives all your teachers (and everyone else who influences you in your life) The Spirit to enliven their bodies; but the rest is totally their- & your-choice (they choose to teach, you choose to learn).
The first teacher I think of (after my mom) is Becky Oglesby - Oklahoma (USA) Teacher of the Year, known as 'The Batman Teacher' because--not only does she like Batman (using The Caped Crusader's adventures in her art-lessons for the early-childhood grades, no doubt)--but she also saved the lives of her students by shielding them from the ravaging of an ED-5 tornado.

They work hard for us. I didn't always appreciate it. There are a few teachers that stand out for me and then a lot of them have blurred in my memory. Of course for me it was a really long time ago. I loved my guitar teacher, that was separate from school. He gave lessons out of a local music store.He played and sang at my wedding.
