Teacher Appreciation

Animated Mrs. Taylor helps her students

There are not enough students in Northtown that truly appreciate the work that our teachers do for us daily. Our teachers have an entire week dedicated to showing our appreciation for them. The teacher I choose to recognize as under appreciated in my school is Mrs. Flores Taylor, an energetic and caring Spanish teacher.

Mrs. Flores Taylor is the most dedicated teacher I have had the opportunity to meet. She is very hard working, and exuberant, always dancing and singing to her classes, even when she comes to school feeling a little under the weather.

Taylor is very motivated to teach her students Spanish and that is why she makes learning so fun and puts in so much effort to teaching. Taylor says she loves the subject she teaches, and she simply loves her kids. She gives reason to herself on why she continues teaching.

Sophomores Danielle Cawley and Isiah Myers love her, with reason; one is she takes time to care for each student individually and is always inviting to help students when they don’t understand a lesson.

She is passionate towards her job and it is reflected in the classroom.

Mrs. Taylor “is an extremely energetic teacher who loves teaching and cares for students and their educations,” said Myers.

She is always at the printer with a new worksheet to help all of her students practice on a lesson they do not completely grasp.

As a teacher, Ms. Taylor appreciates being able to teach and influence all of her students. She feels as if they kids she teaches are gifts, making her job less of a task and more of a new experience every day.

Language is not always an easy subject for students, so when a difficult subject is made fun by the teacher more students are motivated to do their work. Taylor recognizes that learning needs to be fun, therefore she always creates a great learning environment for her students.

Not only does Taylor teach, but also has her own children that she cares about creating motherly like instincts even inside the classroom.  She is willing to converse with any student and NKCHS. Mrs. Taylor truly cares, and I appreciate the hard work she puts in everyday by making learning a wonderful experience. More teachers should be appreciated, and not only during teacher appreciation week.
