My favorite teacher is.....my current supervisor~
I work within the school system, and my direct supervisor is the teacher of my classroom. She is hands down the most compassionate, and thoughtful educator I have ever encountered. This woman cares so much for her students, and is overall phenomenal. Our classroom specializes in teaching special needs Kindergarteners / 1st graders. It is not an easy job by any means, but our teacher nonetheless goes up, and above. Mind you she doesn't have to, but does so nonetheless. Not just for her students, but others as well.
This year in particular has been a very...taxing school year, yet we've managed to pull through as a collective unit. There are 5 adults in our classroom all day ( including our teacher, myself and 3 more, yet excluding a bunch more in terms of alternate services for the kids ), and having so many personalities mesh so harmoniously would not have had been possible with just any teacher standing up at the front of the class every day. And that, by extension benefits the children in so many ways. Happy, and enthusiastic teachers make for a wonderful environment for kids of any age. She's amazing, and I adore her.
In truth I will be utterly devastated when I eventually have to one day switch rooms, and as a result be assigned a new direct supervisor. My work days will never be quite the same. That I can say with utmost certainty.
