Teaching with joy
My daughter has a Physics teacher that teachs with joy. She loves science and passes this passion on to her students. This is a High School Teacher. Can you imagine this age child enjoying a Physics class?
She is young and newly married and is devoted to teaching. Her family does not live close by, so we have adopted her in a secret way.
We send her notes telling her how much she inspires her students. We have sent her movie tickets, a New Years basket with Champagne, hats and noise makers encouraging her to take time to enjoy her new marriage and spend fun time with her husband.
Recently in our part of the country it has finally gotten into the freezing temperatures, so we have treated her to a "Hot Chocolate Kit" , encouraging her to keep warm.
Small notes to encourage her to take care of herself, so that she can then take care of her students.
It is fun for us and we hope she enjoys it also.

She decided to attend a health care school so that she could attempt to make a better life for her family. She accepted a loan from the school and a grant from the school. It would take her 3 years to finish the courses needed. She ... Read Full Story >>
