The Perfect Student?

Growing up in Hawaii I have always been in the “less likely to succeed” group of children. You know the children who’s favorite time of the day is either lunch or recess. Well I guess you could say, that to some extent I have achieved to be something in my life. To me the list of a “perfect student” is what every student strives to be in the first couple of weeks of school, If it be in grade school, high school and even in college. Everyone wants to be on time and do all there homework. We all go to class to learn. This is my view from the students side. We wish that teachers would be more caring and passionate for there material which they are teaching. I know for a fact that it is not for the money. My mother was in the education system for more the 30 years and the money is the last reason why teachers teach. I feel that some of my teachers gave up on me. They thought that there was no hope for me to learn. But there is always that one teacher that can connect with you. The one teacher that helps you understand in your own little way. I hate math, but I can honestly say that I have had a few teachers that were able to help me better understand math. So it’s not always the students fault for not being on time with there homework, but it might just be they way they feel about the teacher. Knowledge is power, so teachers need to strengthen the minds of the students by showing that they care jus a little bit more.
