My AP US History teacher is so fantastic.
He is really passionate about what he teaches and wants to prepare us for the AP test, but he’s also very understanding that people have a lot going on in their lives. There are people (including me), who have a lot of outside things weighing against us, and he takes that into account and even gives full credit for late assignments, lets people sleep in class if they had a particularly bad night (be it due to insomnia or some drama in their lives), and just really reaches out to his students.
I just think he’s such a fantastic teacher.
In fact, all of my teachers are; just my AP US History teacher and Bible teacher in particular.
Like seriously.
My Bible teacher started crying when she found out she’d almost outed me to the class as trans*, she was so freaking upset that she’d been so insensitive and I was just kind of jarred that she cared so deeply about what she’d done. Not to mention she’s just really respectful of my identity and agrees that my feelings are 100% valid.
I love my school…. just not the students.
