I remember my teacher in high school gave a project where we research how the Cold War impacted countries of our background. It was really interesting because I could ask my parents about what the Cold War was like where they grew up.

I went to a culinary school. Learning how to prepare meats, make deserts, and storing food was something that stood out to me. I still practice some of the things I learned in culinary classes in my own home cooking today.

I had several incredible teachers when I was in high school but those that stand out where the ones that were almost always checking in on me and my life as whole not just their class. they cared about all my grades, if I was taking on too much, sleeping in class because I wasn't sleeping enough. It stood out that it wasn't just grade related

In science we had a science fair where I made a game using a wire, a battery and a light. You had move a ring connected to the light around the wire without touching it, or light would go off.

My 11th grade English Teacher. She was just very authentic with what she was feeling and thinking, and very human. I remember her, partway through a lesson, just saying, "This is totally not working guys, I'm sorry! Let's just wrap up the activity, and move on." and we all tried to convince her that it WAS totally working, and re-engaged with the material, laughing together about how it wasn't going as planned, but it was ok.

Nothing comes to mind.  All I recall from my experience was Direct Instruction. Clear and separable relationship boundaries. Serves as a contrast from today.

I had this awesome Physics teacher in high school and she did this amazing lesson on how the film on soap fractures light and creates the iridescent layer. it was part of a station learning lab where we all worked together to bend light around the room and create these amazing color casts- v cool :)

My Geometry teacher had us do a group project about a "real world" math topic. My group did a whole thing on the Golden Ratio, and to this day I still remember all of the different things in nature that are examples of the Golden Ratio, and get excited when I see them. I failed Geometry, but I did really well with that project!

I had a project in 9th grade ELA to create a Utopian society- laws, setting, people, all had to be considered. In addition to writing a paper we also had to build a model. It was a really great way to reflect on values, morals and what we (as students) found important

I remember a project in US History where we had to write a dialogue between someone who was a loyalist for Britain and a patriot for American Independence. I remember that we were supposed to make it as dramatic as possible and it helped form my ideas as to how to compose an argument.

In my senior year my AVID class got to do a self selected topic presentation and display that we were interested in but took a research perspective on how to find good sources. I did mine on Disney history and I loved being able to be myself with the project and share something I was passionate about with my peers right before we graduated

Mrs. T was my favorite teacher in high school. She was an inclusive person and always encouraged me to do my best even when I wasn't "the ideal student". She didn't judge students and tried to understand everyone as human beings even if she couldn't relate to some of the issues students' had going on in their lives at the time. May she rest in peace.

I recall a high school English teacher, Mrs. Jackson. The whole year she taught us great works of African-American literature. We read Ralph Ellison's "The Invisible Man" and "Go Tell it on the Mountain" as well as "The Fire Next Time" by James Baldwin. She would read aloud to us, with us, every day.   -Patrick

I was lucky enough to have a lot of really amazing teachers in my high school experience. Possibly my favorite was my creative writing teacher DR. V. He made me really feel seen and respected- never watered stuff down and held us all to really high standards while also also giving really personalized assignments and feedback.

In response to the relationship building, I remember teachers that I had a connection with a lot more than teachers/courses that I did not. For example, a few teachers I had coached me in various activities and sports. Just by seeing them in a different light helped me develop a stronger and more memorable relationship with them.

My Latin teacher. Memorable because he funny and relaxed, which contrasted with the stoic, stereotypical professor personality of all my other teachers.  Impactful because it was a noticeable contrast and made me see there's a lot of parallels with teachers and comedians in terms of audience engagement.

My 11th Grade Math Teacher, Ms. Pollini. I struggled with Geometry. She saw how I struggled with the Math B regents as I had to retake the exam. She encouraged me with positive reinforcement in moments where it seemed to me where I wasn't making progress. The help was genuine and real.

Sister David Anna, my homeroom teacher and typing teacher is the one that had the most impact on my life.  She always checked in on me to see how I was doing. She was stern and run a VERY tight ship but the one-on-one conversations with her always left me feeling encouraged and affirmed.

In World Cultures Class were were asked choose a country that we knew little about and conduct research on the culture, the food the language the geography, music, etc..
I chose South Korea because I had a great friend from there, who loaned me and outfit to wear, and a recipe to cook a rice dish and taught me some of the language to speak during my oral presentation.

Ms. McDermott stands out. Her main job was as the school's Social Action coordinator, so she oversaw all of the community service outreach programs for the school, and taught 1 section of PE. She gave the students the opportunity to have a lot of input in the causes and projects we worked on, and was always available if you needed someone to talk to.

My 5th grade teacher, Sr. Rita Anne. She was ancient back then, but somehow is still currently living! Anyhoo, she was very innovative in her teaching practices. She had us do a lot of group work and projects. She was also there for us no matter what. I remember that she really took the time to listened to me when my family was going a tough time.

Sr. Jane, a self-taught music teacher who was also a black-belt in karate and a wonderful tennis player. She was strict, but fun and full of life. "Life is meant to be enjoyed and we're all here to live!"
