Your First Teacher

Do you remember your first schoolteacher? Mine was Miss Greenwood. She looked like my Auntie Josie who lived quite a way from us so I didnt see her very often - which made her my favourite aunt. She was only at the school for my first term but she made starting school a positive experience.

mine is MS. Eva...she is my teacher in kinder...i dont remmber her last name coz kindergartens there in the school that i have studied were fond of addressing the teacher in their first names.. [petiksmode]
i didnt start school till I was 5 but it was far more formal than it is now. [Wizzywig]


Mrs. KARUNUNGAN... my pre-school teacher. VERY PATIENT AND A LOVING teacher. That's for sure. I do owe a lot from her. Because I will not be here if I didn't have a nice foundation that she had given me. God bless her and her career too. [Jhordie]
Its really nice that you appreciated her input. that's the sort of thing that makes teaching so rewarding. [Wizzywig]



yes her name was Ms. Russ and i remember that she always used to give us skittles if we got the time right when she called on us. and i even went to visit her a couple of times when i got to high school and she remembered me. [latriciajones]
I recently contacted one of my high school teachers and she remembered me over 30 years on! I was impressed. [Wizzywig]


I can't quite remember what my first teacher's name was originally, but she married David Shephard and became Mrs. Shephard. I remember mostly my favourite teacher, Mr. Barker. He was a lovely man, and everybody got on well with him. Brightest Blessings. [Darkwing]
It's funny how you remember the good ones and the bad ones, huh? The average ones you never recall. [Darkwing]



No, not my preschool teacher. I don't think that I can remember whom I had.. [cream97]
There were no preschools in my area at that time. I lived in a small village and had to travel to the next village for school. I was so small that older boys used to carry me up the steps of the school bus! [Wizzywig]


Yeah my first teacher ever since I start school when I'm Kindergarten is Mrs. Pedragoza, I can't recall her name, I just can't forget her last name. She's too strict. [pinkista]
Ha, I think most of us feel that our teachers are too strict when we are young because we dont want to be told what to do! [Wizzywig]


my first teacher is my sister,we are in same school .she workes there ,when i started school life. [XQshee]
haha , both ! [XQshee]


My first teacher was Mrs. Rhodes and I don't remember too much about her except I think she was mean. I got a spanking in her class because I cried for another sheet of copy paper, we were making snowflake cut-outs and I messed mine up and she wouldn't let me have another sheet of paper. So I cried and she sent me to the principal office and then she spanked me. Yes, over a sheet of paper! The teachers got better after that so I wasn't scarred for life, LOL! [tarheelnancy]
That was definitely mean! She wouldn't get away with it now. She should've just given you the second sheet of paper and helped you to get it right. [Wizzywig]


Yes, i still remember my very first teacher... and her name is Ms. Manalang... but i do not know where she is right now... last i heard she migrated to another country... and i think that is the US... i don't remember a lot about her... mainly because i was only 6 when i started going to school... but i do know i learned how to write because of her...

Good to know that your first experience of school was a positive one [Wizzywig]


Yes I do and with such fond memories. Her name was Miss Cameron and I use to like the way she dressed. She had two daughter and I envied them for having Mith Cameron (that's how I am told I used to call her ) every single day for themselves. She was close friends with my grandmother who I was living with at the time and my grandmother regularly checked up on me and was told wonderful things about me ,that made me smile ,since I wanted so bad to make both those ladies so proud. My grandmother use to tell me later that I would always come home with stories about Miss Cameron ,it seemed I recorded everything she did. [ronnyb]
