Rome fell, Korea was divided, Sean Connery lost a battle to male-pattern baldness, Michael Jordan left the game of basketball, Melissa Sandfort is retiring from her position of being our writing teacher. The world will never be the same. . .
I’ve known you for nearly two years now. During those two years, I think I can safely say my writing skills have improved. I credit you for having a lot to do with my success.
I know from experience that you make an outstanding teacher. You have a gift for making those around you comfortable. You’re one of the few teachers I have had that makes learning an enjoyable experience.
You’ve been inspiring and very supportive.
