Teacher Love

When I think of teachers who made a difference in my life, I easily think of Mr. Potter. He helped me come out of my shell and built my self confidence more than any other teacher in elementary school. He made school fun. I specifically remember him starting a new unit in reading by playing, ”Here comes the sun” by the Beatles. So whenever I hear that song, I think of his class. Unfortunately, I believe he stopped teaching and I never knew if he ever got back into it. If not, it’s a loss to many students who could have benefitted from his optimism and energy.
