Dear Mrs. Kelly,
   
Thank you for influencing my life in many ways; I admire you and appreciate you for the effort you put in to teach us. You taught me to not make a big deal out of little things. Also, the challenges you gave me made me strive harder to achieve my goals. I admire you for challenging the third graders. I appreciate all you have done, not just for me, but all the students; you worked countless hours to prepare us for later grades.

When you told me to stop worrying about little things, it hit me; I made such a big deal from small tasks, such as forgetting to bring a permission slip. This lesson has helped me so much in life. I learned how to keep composure in your class, and it helped throughout my whole academic career. Your teaching methods exposed me to critical thinking questions. This prepared me for many situations later on in life and I admire you for teaching me to keep cool.

You gave me so much useful advice I can use in the future. The way you teach challenges people to think more critically. When you taught about Haiti, it made me see another side of the world. It made me realize disasters occur and they require communication resolve them. I appreciate you teaching the third graders about modern events.

I look up to you as the most influential teacher. You challenge students to exhibit their best. The way you teach prepares everyone for events later on in life, through teaching about the basics and modern events. I aspire to do what you do. Later on I would like to challenge people to think critically like you.
Sincerely,


Albert Luna
