School
The teacher that inspired me most in high school was Helen Peters. She found a way to reach inside every student and brought out the best in them. No matter what your socio-economic status was in the town, she treated each kid with dignity and respect but she demanded high standards and I thank her for that. For not only teaching us about great literature and how to use the written word correctly, but how to interact with each other, how to communicate better, how strive for things that we didn't know were possible. She opened up my mind and my world and she is truly the greatest teacher I ever had.
