...Ohhh...my heart aches for terrified Little Bish. <br /><br />Spelling Bee aside, Mrs. Coffey sounds amazing. I love that she made learning fun.<br /><br />I had a great high school English teacher, Mrs. Meys. She believed in me. She's one of the people who made me want to be a writer.<br /><br />Great post!Suzanne Casamentohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08306151428658707692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8433839509609523237.post-51146134925605559562011-07-27T17:53:44.666-05:002011-07-27T17:53:44.666-05:00BTW, I just noticed a spelling error in your About...BTW, I just noticed a spelling error in your About Me box!

She's creative and bright, and thanks to her I've always known that being able to spell has nothing to do with intelligence.<br /><br />We had two wonderful teachers, Mrs. Pattison and Mrs. Sweeger. They were both funny and inspirational and kind, and I wonder if they had any idea how much I admired and respected them -- and profited from their teaching.Mary Witzlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06458299046574564155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8433839509609523237.post-74461308044537326752011-07-25T14:33:39.474-05:002011-07-25T14:33:39.474-05:00I wish I had an inspiring teacher.

I took this math course once just because she was teaching it. She was an amazing teacher.<br />I was humiliated a number of times in school ...
