Congratulations to
Life-Changing Teaching Award Nominee
ETIEL ZARCO ROJAS
WESTERN HIGH SCHOOL
STUDENT RECOGNITION STORY
Mr. Zarco was my teacher for my freshman, sophomore, and junior year, as I took Biology with him, and then on the next year, I took Chemistry Honors in my Sophomore year, and AP Chemistry on my Junior year, he was the teacher that influenced the most on me over my high school year, as an ELL Student I was glad to have a teacher that spoke the same language I did, because at that time I didn't speak English at all, he was always helpful and careful with those students as me, and I think this was the most awesome teacher I had in my entire life, I think he inspires me to decide to take a career based on chemistry on college. He supported me with the language, and pushed me to learn it better, in class, and also the time he asked me if I wanted to be in an interview with the news even though that at that time I wasn't his student anymore, so for that reasons I think Mr. Zarco was the best teacher I ever had.
