My 10th grade ELA teacher took great interest in the stories I wanted to read and write about. He allowed us more freedom than other classes and it definitely increased my interest in the subject.

I have a similar response to Hauser. In HS, my art teacher let us come to the classroom whenever we were free and after school to work on projects or any art that we wanted. This really helped because of some social situations and helped make me a stronger artist and had a better relationship with my art teacher.

I greet every student with their name every day. I make sure I get to know something about each and every student so I have something to converse with them about and form meaningful relationships. I have students fill out an “all about me” collage at the begging in of the year so that I can reference them late and find out what they think is important about themselves.
