She expected a lot out of us and she worked us hard. When she talked to us, however, we were people. And somehow we all knew her (or him) as a teacher who cared, really cared. What was it that made her or him different from some? We asked several students for not just names of favorite teachers but for names of teachers who cared. Out of those submitted names, we were able to select only a few. Then we told those teachers what the students had said and tried to find out from the teachers themselves what made them care. Ms. Candyce Andrews, junior English teacher, commented that she enjoys her T i work immensely. After contemplating C f i several minutes, she continued, I try to treat everyo ne as an individual. I try to iPSf vrA know them all . f ' v f Ms. Elizabeth Swayze, history teacher, explained that she asked questions about her students ' out-of- school lives and treated them as people to let them know she cared. Also, she said she enjoys teaching because she learns moreabout herself. I like my students and I ' m interested . . . Students need someone to talk to besides parents and friends sometimes. Teachers have many reasons for why they enjoy their occu- pation. Ms. Virginia Ver Steeg explained that she enjoys keep- ing abreast of current topics and events. Ms. Ver Steeg added that she likes teaching senior level and discussing government and economics with her students because the topics change constantly. She added that despite the evils of today, the stu- dents still have faith in the system. They encourage me. Being able to talk to a teacher is important, explained Ms. Nancy Heirholzer, English teacher. She enjoys the interaction with her students and tries to get to know each one. She feels that students respond better in a relaxed atmosphere, so she tries to keep a sense of humor while teaching. I listen to what they say. It is important to me that someone cares. Teachers teach much more than just a subject, commented Ms. Sue Rowland, geometry teacher. She shows concern and interest in the extra curricular activities of her students because, she said, she enjoys seeing students interested and enthusiastic about something.
