Who Was Your Favorite Teacher?

girl on websiteAt a family gathering, my brother and I were discussing the teachers we had growing up who’ve made an impact on our lives. It was interesting how we could easily recall the personalities of our teachers, and how they influenced us in a positive or a negative way.

We fondly remembered Mr. Lee, our English teacher, who helped us set high goals and learn more than we thought possible.  His humor and love of teaching came through as he taught, and made his class one of our favorites.

Can you think of a teacher who made an impact on your life?  Teachers can make a lasting impression on the lives of children.  In 2 Timothy 1:6 we read Paul’s admonition to Timothy to “stir up the gift of God that is within you.” Teaching is a gift—and a skill. It needs to be used and developed to be effective. The teaching ideas on this website are designed to help equip and encourage you as you invest in the lives of children.

Remember, “He who calls you is faithful, who also will do it. ” 1  Thessalonians 5:24
