Welcome to Wikibooks, Dbrod001!

Hello Daisy! It sounds like you have really been influenced by the teachers you previously had. I agree with you that there is a difference between good teachers and great teachers. Great teachers, like you said, engage their students in thir classrooms and spend extra time on students who need it; rather than just move them along with a passing grade. You seem to be very passionate about "returning the favor." Nice job. Kpaul003 (talk) 17:41, 9 September 2008 (UTC)

Hey Daisy! You sure have had an interesting life! And I definitely agree with you about shopping and ice cream :) . I think it's very honorable that you want to respect the teachers that you had growing up and do the same for future generations of students.  I agree with you about great teachers and reaching to all types of students-especially ones with special needs.  I really like your teaching philosophy and I agree with it.  Good luck!

Thank you for commenting on my page! I do really like the color teal. I got a lot of the codes from HTML sites. That is pretty neat that you are from Taiwan. And I absolutely LOVE Jane Austin books and movies as well. I wish I could go back to that time period just once :-) Shakm001 (talk) 03:05, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

Daisy, you're amazing! =) No seriously, you are. But aside from that, I think that is so cool that you've been influenced by your teachers in high school.  I've been to Norview and its pretty nice.  I think that the teachers that taught us ultimately are the deciding factor in what our future professions will be.  Its nice that you want to give back to the school that you attended.  Along with this, I totally agree with you on the importance of children with special needs and how they are just as much a part of the classroom as those general education students.  Also, I didn't know you attended Granby High. Haha!  Star Wars is amazing as well.  Have a fantastic weekend and week! See you in class!    Jtuca001 (talk) 19:39, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

Norview Kidz are the BEST, I'm on 08' grad! So it says you like photography, did you take Garvin's class? Who were your favorite teachers at Norview? Well I wish you the best of luck connecting to and shaping the leaders of tomorrow! Hpoer001 (talk) 02:33, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

Hathaway was crazy but definitely had a passion for math. I think Garvin was the one who indirectly persuaded me to go into teaching. He and I would go at it joking each other. We had the big NPS art trip up to DC and on the way back that night he took a slave flash and set it off in my face to show another art teacher how it worked, the whole bus heard me scream, he was laughing so hard, and a teacher in the front of the bus got on the microphone & told him to cut it out. Needless to say I got joked for the rest of the year!! He pushed me further than any teacher ever did, and I want to be that person for another aspiring photographer. I worked on printing a photo on a sheet of medal for over a month, and he never let me give up. He made me figure it out with out any help, all I had were the chemical instruction guide. Who was the teacher who inspired you the most? Hpoer001 (talk) 04:40, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
