I want to give tribute to three of my favorite teachers: Mrs. Garfoot, Mr. Connely and Ms. Ikelkraut. Mrs. Garfoot was kind and loving and made you feel at home. Mr. Connely was old school stern but was the most fair teacher I ever had. Ms. Ikelkraut was fun and crazy and before you new it you were learning a lot. My teaching style is a cross breed, bringing all three qualities together. I want to thank these teachers who had a wonderful impact on my schooling and my hope is I can return the favor through my teachings.
