Teacher Love

Mrs. McKee (who was Miss Hunter at the time) was such a phenomenal English teacher. She fostered my love of reading and was always encouraging me to try new genres and broaden my horizons. She especially helped me to grow as a writer. I developed a love of vocabulary as her student, which she helped me to embed within my prose. Subsequently to moving to a new town and then graduating from high school, college, and graduate school, I’ve been able to keep in touch with Mrs. McKee. Her calm, nurturing, and encouraging ways are hopefully reflected when I work with my current students today!
