Several years ago, I decided to attend college and fulfill a dream of earning a college degree that I had held since childhood. I enrolled in one class just to see if I was really ready to pursue this dream now.
Unknowingly, one professor held the power to influence and transform one student's life in the palm of his hands. Dr. Melendez, not only influenced my life by providing an educational opening for me to feel confident enough to pursue my dream but he also offered a stimulating classroom, respectful learning environment and reassuring feedback to an unsure, yet, desiring new student.
Because of Dr. Melendez's genuine love of educating and degree of expertise, I was inspired to not only complete my undergraduate degree but I have also earned a Master's degree in Psychology. Soon, I will begin work on my doctorate. An exceptional teacher has the power to share knowledge and influence many, simply by believing enough in the lesson to inspire hope in others.
So, on that note, the quote of the day is:
"The effects of a good teacher can reach much further than the immediate impact of the classroom." tc
