Currently, I'm a pre-service educator seeking a license in both elementary and secondary education. One of my professors gave me the task, or rather the mission, to get in touch with you.<br /><br />Our class is reading Educating Esme and I have to tell you, I'm in love with it. I love the way in which you write, in a manner that is real, candid, and raw. Your stories are inspiring, even in their moments of heart-break, and I am in awe of the atmosphere you were able to create in your room.<br /><br />I would like to take the time to thank you for inspiring me to be not just a good teacher, but a great one. And for reassuring me that greatness is possible and that I too have the ability to make an impact on my students' lives. I am inspired by you and all you were able to do. Thank you for reminding me that it's important to have big dreams and high expectations, and for encouraging me not to shrink back from the person I am inside.<br /><br />Thanks for your words of inspiration.E.Petersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17927514184900231525noreply@blogger.com
