Continue teaching myths and books of all lands. This is a good idea and I believe future generations will benefit by it. I wish also to commend you and to thank you for taking an interest in mine and the class as a whole's grammar.

You're a great dresser, you know just how to wear your cloths, especially your red suit. I have no other complaint.

Well, well! I don't mind bad teachers so much but some habbits they have drive me nuts! Like chewing their eyeglasses (Mr. Loomis) or sniffing their nose (Miss Pasterfield) or wearing the same thing every day (Mrs. Lewis)! Don't forget we have to look at them all period! Present company excluded, Ha-ha! Teachers should have a mirror in the back of the room so they could see how they look to us!

Is it possible for you to teach Creative Writing next term?

You showed me that writing clearly means thinking clearly, and that there is nothing more important than communication.

I wish I had you for Math (my favorite subject). But alas, we can not have our cake & eat it too.

I like everything we do in class but I don't like reading books & myths too I don't like. P.S. I don't like grammer. Oral reports I don't care for. You forget we're not normal like the good schools.

Lessons are pretty interesting, especially if you come to class. I suggest better attendance for me.

I can't take my eyes off you your so beautifull. You're just like my imaginary twin Roseanne. If I was a boy I wouldn't even care about English, I would just sit and stare at you. But I'm not a boy so I’ll just have to suffer the consequents.
