In my opinion teachers are a huge role in a person's life. I
believe a teacher can either help make or break a child. In the 3rd grade I was
diagnosed with Juvenile Diabetes. My teacher at the time would have my class
make get well cards and would visit me in the hospital. She encouraged me to
get back on my feet and to not let the disease take over my life. She would
help remind me when it was time to test my blood sugar and would inform my mom
when I would have a rough day due to a high or a low blood sugar. She met with
my mom and my doctor to help make sure that she was doing all that she could do
as a role model for myself. She helped me grow self-esteem and to know that all
children aren’t the same and it was okay to be different. She encouraged me to
embrace my differences and to not let myself be embarrassed. I not only
remember this teacher as teacher that I would like to be, but also as an
inspiration on what kind of woman and a motivator for young children I would
like to become.
