For many teenagers, high school is an extremely hard time in their life. In addition to the crazy changes your body goes through as you become an adult, there are constantly moments of self doubt that add to the confusion. From facing tough moments in your social circles, to answering questions about what you want to be when you get older, to finding your first part-time job, teens face and deal with a lot of stress, and sometimes… they just need that one person who will listen to them without any judgement, someone who will reassure them that everything is going to be alright.
It may seem unlikely, but at one high school, many of the students have found this person in the same man, and he's also one of their teachers.
We know from previous videos, like the one where graduating high school students returned to their elementary schools to thank a special educator in their lives, that teachers can have a long lasting and very substantial impact on students' lives.
The teacher at the high school in this video, Mr. Wright, has proved to be one of those special educators that has a way of connecting with his students. Whether he is engaging them in class by making his teachings fun and exciting, or he is helping them with very sensitive issues in their personal lives, while also dealing with his own family stresses and challenge, every student who has interacted with Mr. Wright has something amazing to say about him, and this touching video serves as a great thanks to this amazing man!
If you had a teacher that impacted your life in a positive way, please SHARE!
