One ineffective teacher I’ve had is my sixth grade math teacher. The first thing I disliked about her was that she wouldn’t teach the lessons properly and then she would expect everyone to do well on the tests. The second thing I disliked about her was that she made us read the lessons straight out of the book and then do a project on that lesson. Almost all of the time I had to learn everything on my own. The thirds thing I disliked about her was that she was never confident while teaching a lesson and she always stuttered. I believe that my sixth grade math teacher had a fixed mindset because if someone was doing bad in her class she wouldn’t try to help them get better, she would just tell them to study harder. She didn’t believe enough in her students. One effective teacher I had is my seventh grade social studies teacher. The first thing I liked about her was that there were days where she would just walk around the class and talk about what we were learning at the time. It helped me learn the details I would need for the test. The second thing I liked about her was that she had fun projects and she always made sure we understood all the details before we started the projects. The third thing I liked about her was that she always gave study guides for the tests and always made us take notes. I believe she has a growth mindset because if any of her students got a bad grade on a test she believed that they could get better so she helped them.

Throughout all of my years as a student, I have had dozens of unique teachers who each used their own methods of teaching their students. Through all these years of teachers using their own ways to teach, few teachers have stood out. Some in positive ways, some in negative ways. One teacher i really enjoyed learning from was my 6th grade English teacher. Not only was she very effective in teaching students what they needed to learn, but she made learning these things fun. She definitely had a growth mindset. She didn't care about just getting the lessons done and teaching her students, but she cared about the students enjoying the learning process. One teacher i found quite ineffective was my math teacher from that same year. She was the polar opposite of the English teacher i just spoke of. I feel like my 6th grade math teacher rushed through the lesson plans and only cared about getting things done . I feel that she gave us no time to learn or pick up the concepts she was teaching.

During the course of my adventure as a student and learner, I have had countless teachers's. Numerous have been very supportive and have made me a better student, while other's have a fixed mindset, and favor certain students who are strong at their subject. My 6th grade math teacher was probably the most effective teacher I have ever had. She believed in every student she had and pushed us all to the limit, but not to far. She also treated everyone equally, and didn't have any favorite students. Finally, I liked Mrs.Gavric because she had very effective teaching methods. She used google slides to teach and had thorough information. She also showed us examples of the problems which she solved herself, which helped for the visual learners. One teacher than was ineffective

Throughout my years of growing and learning I have a had a lot of teachers who have demonstrated a lot of different methods. These different teachers and experiences has caused me to understand who is the most effective teacher and was the least effective teacher. My most effective teacher I have had would be my 7th grade math teacher. For starters, she always believed in every student which caused everyone to work more efficient because they have learned that people can get better at a specific subject no matter how hard or easy it might seem. She also had explained each formula thoroughly and efficiently which caused students to get a better grasp of the subject at hand/ Lastly, she had assigned project that were very fun and helped us think outside of the box.Other than that I think she was an amazing teacher that had done a lot of for us to help us grow. One Ineffective teacher that I have had in the past would be in 6th grade english teacher. She was kind and caring, but she always was quite boring. She always had uneffective english projects that felt non creative and easy. Also, she rushed a lot of important english lesson which I fell should've had a lot of more time spent on them. Lastly, I feel like I couldn't really grasp any knowledge by the way she taught us which involved mini projects and notes that we just write down. Even through her flaws she is still a great teacher and even though I really didnt really think she was effective other students might because we are all different and we all learn in different way which makes us unique.

Last year, I had a teacher that seemed very passionate about her job. She made sure every student got the assistance they needed to achieve their full potential, and truly believed that everyone had the capability to do well in her class. Lessons were clear and to the point, and anything pertaining to projects and bigger assessments during the end of each unit were fairly organized and explained. Personally, the thing I most appreciated about this particular teacher was the way she was able to put herself in the shoes of her students, and see things from our point of view. Because of this, she made her classroom a productive, stress-free environment- filled with students that she understood learned and worked in different ways and at different paces. She encouraged us to do more than just the bare minimum, and gave us the creative liberty it took to allow us to learn in our own ways. I fell in love with her effective style of teaching, and in my eyes, she most definitely had a growth mindset when it came to what her students achieved.

Those teachers that I believe had something similar to a fixed mindset were almost always the ones that taught world language. Learning language is something that I personally enjoy, so it disappointed me when my classes seemed dull and repetitive. Many of my teachers overlooked errors in papers, and it was evident some thought certain students had more potential than those they had unnecessary biases towards. Most of our work for the year consisted of worksheets, with few similarly formatted presentations in between - and overall failed to create an effective, engaging learning experience for us.

over the past few years in middles school I have had many great and fun teachers, but one effective and fun teacher was my sixth grade math teacher. She had done something many of my teachers haven't which was  making learning fun as well as educational. Another trait that I really liked about her was how she never gave up on a student, for example if me or another class mate didn't understand a concept she would take her time and explain the problem until I had finally understood the problem. I believe that she had a growth mindset because of how well she taught while also giving us time for hands on activities with our friends. Although many teachers may be effective there are a few ineffective teachers such as my seventh grade math teacher. She had taught ok  but when it came to fairness it was one of her biggest weaknesses she had portrays unfair biases toward kids in her class . Me being one of them I had felt this throughout seventh grade along with multiple other students. For example one day in class After all my work was checked she had given it to another student to check with because mine was all correct. The next day as she was checking if everyone had done the classwork, I didn't have it. I reminded her that she gave it to another student, but she wouldn’t listen and she gave me a 0 for an assignment. Now I believe that she did not have a growth mindset. All in all I believe no matter what teacher you have no matter what the issue you should make the best of their time and learn and further advance in their class.

Different teachers have their own ways of teaching, and their own mindset. In eight years of my school career, I have had many teachers, some who I found to be effective and some whom I found ineffective. One of the effective teachers whom I will always remember for her Growth Mindset is my seventh grade Math teacher. She always put forth her best efforts to help every student reach higher and higher. Having a growth mindset includes asking questions, and my teacher always was there to confirm our understanding and correct our mistakes. From the very first day, she encouraged us to practice and review, ensuring us that doing so will help us turn our grades around. Her Growth Mindset outlook, her advice, and her support helped me learn and grow as a person. On the contrary, my fourth grade teacher was ineffective due to her Fixed mindset. I recollect how she assigned us several personal narrative writing assignments. We were instructed to write a draft, then have a student-teacher conference to correct and improvise our writing, and only then go on to the second draft. However, my teacher did not have a Growth Mindset; she always marked our paper with check-pluses, even if there were several obvious places where vocabulary, grammar, punctuation, or format could be improved. As per my opinion, she did not offer much help, or strategy to any of the students. She was extremely lenient, hence, when I reflect back to being in her class, I realize that I did not have the opportunity to overcome my challenges. I would hope to have effective teachers with a positive, Growth Mindset, in future years.

During my journey through JAMS, I’ve had great teachers who’ve taught me how to take a stand for ourselves. Others kept pushing over the limit where we can’t learn or understand anything from the lesson. One of my favorite teachers of all times was Mr. Maney, my sixth-grade S.S. teacher. At the first day of class he seemed really mean, but he was actually nice once you got to know him. He was one of my all time favorite teachers in my whole school year experience till date. On the last day of school in sixth grade, we played outside for the whole class period (which was all SS and Civilization related). He is also really flexible with time and lets you pack up 30 sec before the bell. Mr. Maney also cracked up a lot of jokes if it was a boring and gloomy class. He gives us some projects and they’re really fun! I think that Mr. Maney has a Growth Mindset because she gives time to his students and allows us to relax and catch up on ot work if we are behind. He always has a positive thinking. He keeps thinking about how to help his students if they are lagging way behind in class. I think that this made him an effective teacher because he was really understanding. Meanwhile, my Spanish teacher was boring and we did a lot of projects where we had to talk in front of the class and she chooses randomly as to who gets to go. And she doesn’t give time in class to work on extra practice. She is also very strict and stands in front of the classroom and gives lectures. I feel that she loves to do these things, which the students, honestly don’t. I think that my spanish teacher has a Fixed Mindset because she thinks that she believes in talent which is creating success, without effort. All in all, I think that teachers should give students time for their tests, projects, quizzes, etc, so that students are not feeling pressurized. Students have 6 or 7 other classes to keep up with and I know that might be challenging. I think that she doesn’t make an effective teacher because shes really mean, and doesn’t explain the directions to an assignment very well.

(NOTE: I made a new post, because I can't edit my other post) One teacher that I found helpful was my 7th grade English teacher. I liked her a lot because she always had an open mind, always. She was always open to discussion, and was extremely kind to us. She would always explain a topic that I couldn't understand. I think she had a growth mindset, because she always pushed us forward, and through incorporating humor and fun into our lessons, she was able to help us learn and develop ourselves. A teacher that I found ineffective was my 6th grade math teacher. Although she was very knowledgeable of the topic, she wasn't very good at explaining the content. She also wasn't open to the students, and didn't treat students individually. She would just thrown information at us. She had a fixed mindset, and made her an ineffective teacher.

Many of my teachers were very helpful throughout the years that I had them. Some teacher unfortunately weren't that helpful. All my helpful teachers would realize when I wouldn't be able to understand something and sit down to help me. Bad teachers on the other hand would yell at us for not paying attention in class because they wouldn't realize we were paying attention to the material we just didn't understand it. One teacher that was very helpful was Mrs. Molnar. She really stood out and helped the class with everything. She would also help us with tests and give us for tips and tricks for learning how to remember random facts.

Throughout my years at JAMS, I have had many fantastic teachers who taught me many valuable lessons. I was lucky enough to have no teachers that either dragged me down or weren't helpful to me. One teacher that truly sticks out would have to be my sixth grade social studies teacher, Mr. Lanza. He was always creative with his lessons, and believed in our growth as historians. He was always helpful towards everybody, and always answered our questions. All of his lessons, activities, and projects were very enjoyable as well as informational. His mindset was definitely a Growth mindset, However, in elementary school, I had a teacher who was very ineffective. She was my 4th grade teacher, and had a very fixed mindset. One thing which I disliked about her was that she picked favorites, the two smartest kids in class. I was always able to tell who they were because she would treat them differently in comparison to the rest of the class, for example she would act kinder towards them, call on them more than other kids, and signed only their yearbooks when we graduated from the school. She didn't believe in the rest of the class, we were all smart children. Throughout the year I learned a lot, increasing my intelligence, but her little faith in me never changed.

During the course of my studies at school, I have had many teachers. Some of them were exceptional, and really pushed me beyond me limits. Others, were repetitive and were unable to teach me anything. My most effective teacher was my Social Studies teacher in 6th grade. Much of the work we were assigned were maps and projects about all the aspects of the civilization we were learning about. All we were given was a worksheet and a textbook and the rest of the project was up to us. I liked how independent we were and how we were able to learn the information by ourselves without much guidance. I also loved how each class was mixed in with stories from his life, and humor. He had interactive lessons, where we could engage in lively stories drawn from history. My teacher really pushed our boundaries by expecting us to complete the work ourselves, and because of that, I retained much of what we covered in his class, due to the fact that I spent much time researching the history and culture.From my time in his class, I believe he had a growth mindset, because he allowed us to engage, and discover. He believed that everyone had potential and constantly made us push out of our boundaries.
On the contrary, a very ineffective teacher was my French Teacher. She never gave us new curriculum and constantly repeated work. Her classes were very slow, and many of the projects that she assigned either were completed much later, or another form of something we already had learnt. Because of this, I never learnt much in her classes, and wasn't challenged enough. All the material learnt each year was easy, and boring. Her methods were unorthodox, and didn't accomplish anything. I feel that she had a very fixed mindset because she didn't realize to challenge the class and give out new work that really stimulated the mind and made us strive to understand what she was teaching. She never really understood our potential and spent long tedious hours explaining tasks we had already completed in previous grade levels. Our vocabulary was a bare minimum, and the few sentences we spoke were without crisp pronunciation.

My 7th grade English teacher was a good example of an effective teacher, because she limited the boring parts of work by making the rather long tasks and learning fun. She also was understanding, though she did give enough work to ensure practice. She was definitely an effective teacher, since I was able to take many important skills from her class. She was always ready with creative projects. I feel that she has a growth mindset, with the concept of improving through practice. On the other hand, one teacher that had ineffective ways of teaching was my 4th grade teacher. She didn't really give us information quick enough, and most of the stuff we did was either from a worksheet or textbook- not fun. I believe she had a fixed mindset, with the idea that people are born either with academic success or not. I don't really recall her helping me drastically improve in school.

One teacher that i found very effective was a teacher in my old school who used to run video club. I liked that she would always make me go forward and when i got stuck she would help me. she would let me learn from my mistakes and she would take her time to teach me how to edit. because of her i got my love for editing. one teacher that i thought was ineffective was my third grade teacher. she used to scold us for our mistakes and had a strict way of teaching. i think my video teacher had a growth mindset and my 3rd grade teacher had a fixed mindset. this makes my video teacher an effective one because she was positive and always helped her students and let them learn from their mistakes and made sure they got everything by explaining to them again and again and that's why i still remember everything she taught me till now. My 3rd grade teacher an ineffective one because she was strict and expected us to understand things by ourselves and never explained briefly.

One effective teacher I have had over the years was my 7th grade math teacher. Furthermore, one thing I liked about her is that she would never stop giving us examples or teaching the lesson until, ever student in the class understood the lesson. Another thing I liked about her is whenever students were done with their work she would make them help other students that are having trouble with their work. In addition, a third thing that I liked about her is she was always available for help after class. One ineffective teacher I have had over the years was my 7th grade english teacher. Also, one thing I disliked about her is she wouldn't be available for help after school. Another thing that I disliked about her is she would tell us that if we thought that this class was hard we should think about demoting to level 2. A third thing that I disliked about her is she would sometimes give us vocabulary words but, she wouldn't do enough activities with them for an upcoming test. I believe that my 7th grade english teacher had a fixed mindset and this made her an ineffective teacher because, if a teacher doesn't believe that her students can learn she will not teach or help them much. Lastly, I believe that my 7th grade math teacher had a growth mindset and this made her an effective teacher because, if a teacher is willing to help their students learn if they don't understand the lesson she will help the students by making them believe that nothing is impossible.

One teacher that I feel had a positive influence on my education was my english teacher in 6th grade. Throughout elementary school it was only the basics of language arts or "learning the ropes" but my 6th grade teacher really introduced me to the different ways of writing and interpreting reading in a completely different perspective. The teacher that made no positive influence on me was my fourth grade teacher. She had attempted to do what my 6th grade english teacher did but her teaching teqnique opposed that teacher. For instance, if a student made a mistake and forgot a problem she would scold that student harshly in front of the whole class. This student would always do his problems afterwards but was very threatened with our teacher meaning no one asked her for any help since they were all uncomfortable.

One teacher that I can say had the growth mindset was my 7th grade English teacher she gave us fun activities to do to improve our vocabulary. She also wouldn't get mad if we did something wrong.

She rarely ever taught.

Over the course of multiple schools, and very wide variety of teachers, I have identified the amazing (or should I say JAMazing) teachers as well as the teachers who lacked in interest and teaching ability. Thankfully, none of them were horrible and ever discouraged me to my worst state of mind. Every teacher has their way of teaching, which I respect but here are a few who stuck out to me, good and bad.

One teacher who I found very effective was my 6th grade social studies teacher. His class consisted of one project after the other, numerous worksheets and the most interesting projects I think I have ever done. From thinking from a different perspective and learning things in a new competitive way, he always managed to stuff our brains with all the glorious civilizations. His tests weren't easy but they were well thought out. Nothing on his tests or vocabulary quizzes were about one topic and he always managed to make you think your hardest. Other than all the hard work that he gave, he didn't just sit at his desk laughing while seeing some of us struggling. He was very interactive and humorous. He knew what each class and student's weaknesses were since he used to switch up tests for each period. He eased the class with their choice of music. Music helped me and a lot of students, making him a very popular teacher among his students. But the way he implemented physical games such as the Mummy Relay Race on the last day of school and acting like wolves and scavengers migrating. It was always quite clear he had a Growth Mindset putting us up to the task and encouraging us to always do our best and the experiences we go through to get to where we want to be. Thank you for the unforgettable experience Mr. Maney.

Although most of my teachers were nice and quite helpful, there was on who stressed me out the most. She was my 6th grade math teacher. She was quite nice and all but when it came to teaching she lacked the student's interest and grasp of the concept. Except for occasions where she let us work in groups and sit where we want, which helped a lot with understanding, I felt like she was only interested in specific students. She didn't teach much but her tests were hard, making it confusing since we either learned the concept for one day or never learned it. She always expects the most from us which is encouraging and all but never gave us specific attention. We had a small class in general which I thought would be easy to identify the needs of each student. But some of her projects were helpful and creative. Sadly, that's the only credit I would give her about teaching.

One teacher that I found most effective was my 7th grade english teacher. She made sure everyone was grasping onto the information she was giving us and made sure to give every individual student the same amount of attention. When she also assigned projects or classwork in general , she would make it very fun and would let us work with peers, this was effective because I was learning information easily and I also wanted to learn it because I truly enjoyed it. In addition, this teacher didn't give us many tests. She made sure we knew what we were learning before assigning a test and she would make sure we were truly ready. She always set up fun games to play to help us study and studying was stress free because we didn't have to study much . This also made the tests stress free which I think helps students want to learn more. This teacher was definitely an effective teacher and she had a growth mindset.

She may have been strict about many things including homework and paying attention, but she still got the job done and taught me what I needed to know. She would explain what we needed to do for a long time so that we knew exactly what to do and how to do it. One teacher that I found ineffective was my 6th grade math teacher. I did not understand a lot of what she was explaining in her classes and some of her assignments were either to challenging or not challenging enough. She was a good teacher, but I don't think she was a very effective teacher for me. 1. She didn't explain very clearly

One teacher that I found most effective was my 6th grade social studies teacher. He was very fun and created the projects that allowed us to have fun while learning the subject. The information was easier to remember and learn because of the examples of models that he had showed us. One teacher that I found that was not effective was unable to deliver the information in a way that we could remember. That teacher gave us the information, and expected us to somehow remember it and be able to be able to answer questions about the information that he/she gave us. It was like the teacher didn't understand that we had other class, family, friends, and other activities.  I think that the 6th grade social studies teacher had an open mindset. He was willing to try out new thing and new projects , which made his class more enjoyable. Meanwhile, I think that the other teacher had a fixed mindset.

A teacher that I found to be most effective was my 7th grade English teacher. He was the type of teacher that was down to earth and he went straight to the point in explaining certain things that we either didn't know or understand. When he gave us projects they were really fun and the projects were related to what we had to do in class. He also was really nice and he made everyone laugh.
A teacher that I found ineffective was my 7th grade math teacher. I thought the person was ineffective because she just gave us work and the person didn't really teach the subject fully. The person also didn't explained clearly and and the person tried hard to flair up lessons but in my opinion it didn't really help me from the lesson but it distracted me from doing what I had to do.

One teacher that I found most effective was my 6th grade social studies teacher. He implemented fun and humor into our curriculum by assigning easy and entertaining projects and adding humor to everything he said, making the subject more amusing for us to learn about it. Also, he rarely gave tests, relieving us of any stress or tension to study and do well. When he did give tests, they were online and easy, so we could type through it pretty quick and get it over with stress-free. Additionally, he played music of our choice during class time, which helped to ease through the class and help us focus better since we're surrounded with sounds we like. Music definitely gave me an easier time focusing in his class, so personally I really appreciated that he had no problem playing music out loud. Lastly, relating to fun and humor, he usually had games for us to play relating to the subject we were learning about. Whether it be a Mummy Relay Race to help us learn more about Egyptian culture, or having a Kahoot competition on Indian religions, he always made sure we had fun while learning. One or two more specific things I loved about that class was how he made school-mandatory geography bees so fun and exciting, how he had a relay race on the last day of school and awarded teams with candy, and how to demonstrate the Egyptian culture he allowed students to bring in food of that culture and have a "feast".

One teacher that I found least effective was one of my fifth grade teachers. On the very first day of school, she was a bit impolite and yelled at students if they didn't have the right supplies. For example, I brought a binder along with my folders which I got yelled at for, which I thought was a bit uncalled for and churlish. She also had favorites, which was unfair to other students who had potential, but didn't get to portray it during class since the teacher would never let them talk. Overall, my fifth grade teacher was just a bit rude and did things uncalled for.

One undoubtedly effective teacher I had was my 6th grade Social Studies teacher. I'll be honest - his class wasn't particularly easy or anything. Projects were showered on us each marking period and the homework assignments seemed to target what we liked the least. But each period with him was memorable. His specialty was making lessons entertaining.  Many jokes were cracked and he taught us helpful tricks to remember specifics for a test. He exemplified growth mindset by making us want to learn and capturing our interest in world history.
An ineffective teacher I had was my 6th & 7th grade French teacher. She had a kind personality, but as a teacher, I felt like I was only learning for the assessments. Lessons were terribly boring. I typically felt like falling asleep. Each class was the same: a Google Slide flowchart with vocabulary, followed by a worksheet. But I held my grades together so my average stayed high, and so I didn't disappoint my teacher - who, again, is nice and personable. My desire to become fluent in French (as of the other students) surely faded. Because she lacked growth mindset, she also lacked our attention and enthusiasm.

My most effect teacher was my 6th grade math teacher. She was extremely passionate about her job and seemed to really care about us learning and understanding the actual material, instead of simply teaching it to us so we can score well on tests. One of the things that I really loved about her was that she taught by almost telling a story, taking simple things in our lives and relating it to concepts in pre-algebra, allowing us to understand it in a more simple way. It really helped me grasp a lot of the material, and helped me remember it as well, since she made it seem so clear and simple. Another thing that I really liked about her was that she allowed us to discuss things with other people in our class. This way, I could see how other people had taken in the concept and learn from them. By doing this we could help each other, and while we are explaining things to each other, it helps us further understand the concept as well. In addition to this, I liked how she didn't make class boring, and made sure to move at a fast, yet steady pace, while including activities occasionally and interesting ways of explaining things. This kept our attention and in turn helped us learn better since we focused on her more. It also allowed us to learn a lot in the short amount of time, and it just made me look forward to her class. All in all, I loved the way she taught, and thought she was very effective. On the other hand, one teacher that I thought was very ineffective, was one of my sixth grade english teachers. I felt that she didn't really explain things clearly enough, and half the time I was simply confused about what to do. Plus, she didn't really teach the subject much she just gave us passages to read which is fine and all but it was harder for me to grasp the concepts she was teaching fully. Also, I felt as though she was a bit crude in her ways of teaching, and I couldn't really connect with her. All in all, she didn't really explain things clearly making it hard for me to understand, and frankly we just didn't really have any connection.

One teacher that i have found very effective was my 7th grade English teacher. He always had a great way to teach the class and make sure everyone was all on the same page. He also had very helpful writing and reading tips that had helped me get through the year. I had lots of fun in that class and learned a lot from him. He didn't treat his students differently and helped improve everyone one step at a time but allowing us to all express thoughts and gave us the opportunity to work and collaborate through debates and other helpful activities allowing students to bounce ideas off one and other. By doing this he showed us a growth mindset by making all students feel comfortable with sharing there ideas and not making anyone feel embarrassed or left out.

My most effective teacher was my 7th grade English teacher. He always kept the class interested in the topic. 7th grade English was the class I zoned out the least. He kept his voice loud and clear and he always moved around the class rather than standing in one place and speaking in one tone the whole class time. My most ineffective teacher was my math teacher in 6th grade. She did exactly the opposite of what my English teacher did. She would stand in one place the whole time and her voice was very quiet and boring. She never really kept the class interested or exciting. 6th grade math was the class I always zoned out in and felt sleepy in that class and I wasn't able to focus because I just wanted the bell to ring and get out of there.

The one teacher I have found most effective is my 6th grade math teacher, Mrs. Gavric. Everyday we stepped foot into her class she would have a mindset of helping us understand the lesson we are learning. She was committed to teaching us and, she would also never back down a question asked by a student because she knows that there is never a dumb question. Whenever you need extra help Mrs. Gavric never says no to coming because she wants to help her students understand what she is teaching so in the future we can succeed. I loved the way Mrs. Gavric taught the way she was teaching. She always made us go through one lesson a day and solve extra problems from another packet she printed out. She would always teach us as easy as possible meaning, she would give you a short cut to the answer without putting pressure into the problem. When we are done up to four to five lessons she would give us a quiz and tell us before hand.She would always try to make everyone pass in a way with either study guide, extra help, sending online videos, or corrections if the result you got wasn't very pleasing. After a few test and quizzes, she would give us a project to do and it would be a fun but hard working project to do with a partner of your choice. As to conclude, I think Mrs. Gavric was the most Effective teacher I have had. On the other hand, I think the most ineffective teacher I have had is, Mrs. Nangia. I really didn't like her way of teaching because it wasn't very organized. If you were to be in her class, you wouldn't understand what she was trying to teach you. She would always use presentations from online and explain us the science from there. She would never make her own presentation or worksheet. I have also noticed that, whenever she teaches she always goes off track 2-3 times and wastes the class period on that so we never get to learn anything properly. I think if Mrs. Nangia improves on that she would become a very intelligent and nice teacher.

My Most effective teacher was in JMP Mrs. Rinaldi who i found effective in the way she teached us  because she went slow and repeated her self a lot. My most ineffective teachers

My most effective teacher throughout my middle school experience was Ms.Brown. I was lucky enough to get a teacher who had a growth mindset. She believed that you can grow and can learn more, with the amount of time and effort. I liked that she understood how different people learn and how they grow and she took it into account. Also she was kind enough to put her time for her students, She let us come early or late just to practice material. Lastly, I liked that she was fair. She would not be biased towards anyone and everyone had a fair chance. The teacher that I had with a fixed mindset was a teacher who was good, but she believed if that you were not good from the start you would not change which is one of my dislikes. To add to this she would treat us differently and it was quite unfair.

In my past, my most affective teacher of all was probably my fourth grade teacher, Ms. Miragliotta. She helped me as the new kid a lot and her activities and projects really made me engage into what we were doing. She got me interested in her stem activities and I became even more interested in math than I already was. I also liked her way of teaching and it helped me learn the information better.

Over time, I have studied under many teachers. Some of them were more effective than others. One of the most effective teachers I have ever had was my math teacher in 7th Grade. She always gave us challenging math problems and encouraged us to try and find an answer to these problems. She pushed us and always made sure we were on top of our work by giving pop quizzes and checking if we completed our homework. If we could not understand a certain topic, she gave us extra work and even told us to come before school to study with her. All in all, my 7th Grade math teacher was excellent. On the other hand, my 6th grade math teacher was the least effective teacher I ever had.

# data[].attributes.body
My most helpful and effective teacher last year was Ms. Richards. She would always first explain the topic that were learning and how to do it, and if we don't understand after her explanation she will come to us and calmly talk to us and help us with what parts we don't understand, and she would let us work together to help each other to learn more effectively. In my opinion she had a growth mindset because she would always come up with many different ways to do tasks. On the other hand, I had one ineffective teacher, that I will not name that did not help us individually as much, but this might have been from the massive class we had. Along with that she would not fully explain the topic she was about to teach us and expect that we knew half of the topic already. This way of teaching was probably a fixed mindset because she would not try to open the seprate topics and explain then, but she would just assume we knew most of the information.

Going into 7th grade, I quickly realized my favorite subject was math. My teacher, Mrs. Anthony , was very effective.In my experience, she is one of the best math teachers I have. She always puts us up to a challenge, and pushes us. She can bring up a pop quiz anytime, or give out a lot of homework. The homework that she gives is to challenge us, to practice so that we get what we are leaning. When we check homework, if we dont understand anything, she will answer. She does all of this to make us smarter, to help prepare for the future. She is always there to help us with our problems, but she leaves us hanging sometimes. She wants us to use our brains and figure things out. If we get something wrong, she gives us corrections to recognize what we got wrong, and fix it. To learn from our mistake. That is the correct way to teach, and is a perfect example of growth mindset.

But on the other side, I have my ineffective teacher. When I first came into 6th grade, I was excited to meet all of my teachers. But I was disappointed by my math teacher, Miss. Poppy. Miss Poppy wouldn't teach  us a lot, and always wanted us to figure things ourself. But we didnt really understand the topic and she didnt teach us about our mistakes like Mrs. Anthony did. She just wasnt that help in 6th grade, and Im glad I had Mrs. Anthony in 7th

In sixth grade I was lucky enough to have a teacher that really allowed me to engage in the subject he was teaching (english). Mr. Martin turned what we learning into a group experience rather than just him providing us with worksheets and a presentation. He let us participate in debates and we bounced ideas off each other. He didn't treat any particular student smarter than another and gave each and every one their own opportunity to share their thoughts. By doing this he showed how he used a growth mindset to create an environment where every student felt like they were of equal standing and no one felt scared or embarrassed to contribute their opinions. Opposed to this, I had a science teacher in the past that didn't necessarily believe in these same ideas. She would present a slideshow and hand out a worksheet and that was all. There were no new ways of learning and the environment was far from comfortable. Mistakes were looked down upon, so most students were afraid to explore new things and participate in class discussions.

A teacher who has helped me so much was my English teacher and also my Math teacher from Grade 7.

# data[].attributes.body
Out of all of my teachers, the most effective one would be my 7th grade English teacher.  She has a great personality that always brightened my day by being in her class. She understood that each of us worked at our own pace and some of us had more experience than others. Furthermore, she let us take our own paths and be independent, but we also got to interact with the students around us. She always gave great advice and encouraged us to take risks to strengthen our skills and broaden our perspective. During the school year that we spent together, she proved that she had a growth mindset. Her modesty and ability to know her weaknesses and strengths allowed her to be an effective teacher. A teacher who did not have as much as an influence on me was my French teacher. I think that her fixed mindset, which made her blind to our potential, caused her to be ineffective as a teacher. Throughout the ten months that we had, we barely learned anything except for a few phrases. She never urged us to go further and almost always gave good grades, which caused students to think that they did not need to try. We often ran out of time at the end of time since we were always working so slowly. At the end of the school year, I always have felt like I could have learned so much more in this subject, if it were not for this teacher's method of teaching.

In the past, my teachers were sort of unfair/fair; it was kind of a random chance they'll be helpful/unhelpful. In my old school, I had this mean teacher. Her name was Ms. Tabaru. She was really mean and cruel, and this was during the third grade; but she helped us a lot and tried to discipline us, and teach us respect. One example is that she made other students sit in this corner where they would stare at the wall and think what they did wrong. She was an effective teacher. My ineffective teacher was probably my 7th grade math teacher. She was really lazy sometimes, because she doesn't explain well, and one of the students in our class keeps on asking questions because of that. She doesn't like to answer back , because it wastes time and she needs to teach the rest of the class. She used to always let us play outside (which I enjoyed) but she didn't teach us anything.

One exceptionally effective teacher I have had in the past is my seventh grade math teacher. In my experience she was, by far, one of the best teachers I have ever had. She was a great person to talk to and she would differentiate her work to suit each of her students' abilities best. She would hold study sessions every day and she would make sure each student of hers did well.
However, we all have one ineffective teacher. For me, this teacher was my fourth grade teacher. She taught nothing new in her class as we had learned everything the previous year. She was also uninterested in what she was teaching and never wanted to hear the students' perspective and their understanding.

Over the years I have had some very effective teachers and some very ineffective teachers. Out of all of them I personally felt that my 3rd grade teacher Mrs. LaRoche. First of all, teaching us was her last year at the school, so she really wanted to make it count. Also, she happened to enjoy our class as well. Over all Mrs. LaRoche was the reason why I became interested in Math and English. She encouraged

The most effective teacher I've ever had was my 6th grade science teacher. Ms. Mazza. She was completely kind and understanding. Her way of teaching was fun and interactive. She understood that it wasn't strict rules and boring lessons that made

Over my time as a student I have had multiple different teachers. All unique in there own way. But one thing they all did was effect me for the better and for the worse. One effective teacher, that I greatly admire was Ms.Richards in seventh grade. I liked how she taught new lessons, made every lesson interesting and thought of new projects and ideas to help us learn. Everything became easier with her due to her help. One ineffective teacher I had was my third grade teacher. I disliked her for one, she would not give us any challenges and stick to what she could find in our textbooks. Another reason I disliked her was because she would always jump around from lesson to lesson in no specific order and not help us review for topics when we desperately needed more practice. I believe Ms.Richards had a Growth Mindset for the fact she suited every child's need individually. She would help anyone in need and spend multiple days on a topic helping us review in new interesting ways that improved some peoples including my grades. Not only that but as the year progressed and we changed Ms.Richards would change her teaching style to better help us which was spontaneous.This made her a very effective teacher due to her teaching skills and methods. If I had any other teacher I would probably not be the same. On the other hand, my third grade teacher did not have a growth mindset. She had a fixed mindset. She would stick to what ever she could find in our books making the lessons boring everyday. This made me not want to learn due to the fact that we would never stick to a single lesson for more than a day or just maybe a few days at most. Although I suffered my grades did as well when I would be able to only review at home and not with her and my classmates. This made my teacher barely effective as I always felt insecure and unsure of what I was doing in class. I never felt I was actually improving with her.

Leading into middle-school, my favorite subject was science. As I journey'd through the life as a middle school student, my love for science kept expanding, since Ms. Mazza, my science teacher, made my learning experience more enjoyable, and very interactive. She got my interested in the many fields of science, such as biology, physics, and geology. With the help of her, and Mr. Zwillmann, they helped me learn a lot easier, and more effectively. One teacher that was not an effective teacher was my Third grade teacher. She wasn't a bad teacher, but she didn't get me interested in the variety of subjects she taught me. My will for learning did not necessarily grow, and I wouldn't record it as a memorable year. I couldn't say it was effective.

One helpful and effective teacher was my 7th grade English teacher Mr. Hettrick. He was calm, patient, and willing for his students to get better. The first reason why is because he sets up stations and chooses our groups to help communicate with our partners and work together. This helped dramatically because it helped my communication and teamwork skills which gives me more motivation to try harder and go on. For example, if I needed help or if I did not understand, he would give me ways to help me better understand what I'm doing better and easier. Also, he did not give much HW and instead gave us all the work in class which will not stress work being done at home. He had a growth mindset. He believes effort equals good grades and an easier life. However, one teacher I disliked was my 7th grade SS teacher Mr. Sack. He crammed almost all homework, projects, tests, and quizzes on the same week and we're not able to finish them on time. Its like he was giving the amount of work it was like in college and almost just like threw work at us and does not even explain to us what we are doing. Instead, he should explain to us because it, in my opinion helps students better understand what's going on. He expects everyone to think its easy when somethings are difficult for other people. I believe overall Mr. Sack has a fixed mindset. He thinks intelligence does not change and just thinks that you're just born to be either dumb or smart.

One of my most effective teachers was my 7th grade English teacher, Ms. Richards. She was nice to everyone and treated the class like friends, all while teaching like a teacher. She would teach us how to get better at writing and the different forms of it. Whenever we were to write some sort of literature, she would make it fun for us by letting a few of us sit in the hallway so it was less stuffed in the room. She gave us a fair amount of time to do the work, and would grade everyone's work fairly in the end. I would say that Ms. Richards has a growth mindset, because of the way that she made her class a class where you could get a good or bad grade by the amount of work you did not your level of smartness. She also believed in us, which also made her a great teacher. On the other hand, one teacher I thought was ineffective was my 6th grade math teacher. She was really nice to us, but it got to a point where she was just too nice and she wasn't pushing us to learn anything. She wouldn't make her lessons creative, she would just speak to us, in a boring fashion,even though she knew that half the time no one was listening (which she did nothing about). She seemed like an inexperienced teacher who had trouble getting the math lesson into all of her students' minds. By the time a test would come around, almost no one knew what it was about, because the teacher didn't explain it thoroughly enough or skipped over it in the book. She made our tests really hard and it was extremely hard to pass them with the little knowledge that we had at that point. I would say that she had a fixed mindset, because of the way that she never taught us properly and expected some of us to pass and others not to with the same amount of information in our heads.

When starting middle I heavily disliked English, I thought that it had no benefit on my life and was just a subject I had to take to graduate. However, once I entered middle school this changed due to my English teacher Mr. Martin. Instead of providing us with traditional presentations and worksheets, Mr. Martin made English a group experience where we all engaged in activities and learned as a class. Working together most of the time made his class feel like a safe haven where anyone could ask a question or bring up any English related topic. Another effective method he used was that he got involved in the conversations himself, he treated us like equals and respected our ideas and opinions, he treated every student equally and believed that we all had the ability to do anything we put our minds to; showing his growth mindset. Mr. Martin also challenged us with questions and activities that made us think deeper and ask more questions. However, working together caused us to go off topic a lot, for example, once we spent an entire period trying to guess his age. But, overall Mr. Martin was a very effective teacher that allowed us to reach our full potential. However, unlike Mr. Martin, a social studies teacher I had in the past, in my opinion, was not very effective. This teacher had very generic lesson plans, on a regular day we would just read off the board and copy notes onto our Chromebooks. Some activities that we didn't were stations, where one would rotate around the classroom and do a different activity at each station, another one was where we would read an article and fill out a worksheet. Both of these activities didn’t really challenge any of the students and weren’t very interactive. However, I liked how well this teacher connected with the students he was able to really understand how they felt and help them when one needed help. Even though I disagree with this teacher's teaching style I believe that he did have a growth mindset and believed that we all would be able to be successful if we focused hard.

One exceptionally effective teacher I had is my 7th grade math teacher Mrs. Sabunas. Everyday, she would give us guided notes everyday and go over them. We always had something to do and answered any questions we had. She gave us her way to do every type of question which made algebra much easier. I liked the way she explained the lesson and showed the problem step by step.She had a growth mindset because no matter how bad we did on a test, she always believed in us and helped us improve.  The growth mindset made her a really effective teacher who was always helping us improve. A somewhat ineffective teacher I had was my 4th grade teacher. She mostly focused on the people who needed help and didn't really teach anything interesting. She gave the people who were capable of the problems the same things as the other people. Also, she didn't challenge us and kept us fixed at the mindset we had. She had a growth mindset for the people who need help but a fixed for the capable kids.

My teachers have helped me learn many great things but one teacher that stood out the most was my 6th grade math teacher, Mrs. Gavric. 3 things I liked about her included that she always gave challenging tests to help us better understand and this ended up helping me in Algebra. Additionally, she sometimes even gave fun assignments to complete which made learning even more fun. Lastly, she knew all the tricks to teach us so that we could finish the problems faster and end up getting better grades. Another teacher that I have had that was my French teacher was not effective towards my learning. 3 things I did not like about her was that she didn't try to challenge us and gave easy phrases to learn which did not help my French. Furthermore, she almost never gave any tests or quizzes which did not help me learn. Lastly, at the end of the year, I had barely learned French which made the whole class pointless. Overall, I think Mrs. Gavric had a growth mindset, and was a fixed and effective teacher.

# data[].attributes.body
One extremely effective teacher I have had in the past was my 6th grade pre algebra teacher, Mrs. Gavric. I think she had a growth mindset because she always gave us challenging material that pushed us to try really hard to understand the topic well. No one really did that great on her test and quizzes, because although she taught us the lesson, she gave us problems that required us to think for ourselves and apply both the lesson and common sense in order to solve the problem. By giving us this challenging material, she was pushing us outside of our comfort zone and although I didn't realize it until after 6th grade, she helped me grow as a student tremendously. A teacher that I view as ineffective is my French teacher. I believe she has a fixed mindset because she gives us very easy material that does not really challenge us to take it upon ourselves to learn french and excel. She has said that she doesn't like to give bad grades and will notify you if you get a bad grade so you can bring it up. Although I'm not saying it would be wonderful if she failed us in everything we did, it would help us learn and put more effort into working hard, and with the consolation that no matter how bad anyone does, they will almost certainly receive a good grade really does not give anyone the incentive to want to learn more.

Of all the teachers I have had so far, the most effective, i would say, would be my 3rd grade teacher, Ms. Battista. Some of the things that I liked about her was that she was kind, helpful, and encouraged mistakes. She would also push us all above and beyond into places we never knew existed. I still remember the class's disappointment every Thursday when we had to write articles.Even though at that point in time, I didn't enjoy it, I learned to agree with it and I believe this has a huge impact on my writing improvement. Although, I have had an ineffective teacher. Her name was Mrs. Uzenski and she taught me in 2nd grade. A few things that I didn't like about her was the fact that she kept teaching the same thing over and over. This method didn't help me at all and I ended up being really bored. She also would never offer help to any students. She was trying to make us independent, but at that age, I believe, children should be given a push and opportunity to grow. But the WORST of all was that she favored students. I would notice that she would offer her help and advice to some students and not others.Overall, Ms. Battista had a growth mindset and believed all children have opportunity, while on the other hand, Mrs.Uzenski had a fixed mindset towards her class.
