Congratulations to
Life-Changing Teaching Award Nominee
JAMES MINING
LAMAR MIDDLE SCHOOL

STUDENT RECOGNITION STORY

What makes Mr. Mining the BEST teacher is that he makes everything easier than it already is. He never gives too much work, if someone doesnt fully understand a question he always tries to make it into a shorter and easier question for that student to understand. What makes me excited is that not only is it the final period of the day, but he's one of the few teachers that let's me listen to music, also science is my favorite subject, and hes one of the best teachers i've had for science. I know he cares because ive seen him ask a student if they're ok, and he always listens to my stories or just listens to my questions and tries to answer it the best he can. He makes me a better student and more confident because whenever i see a good test grade, it makes me know that i tried my best and that it was enough. He has supported me inside the class room by making me feel safe and comforted, i know i can be myself in his classroom. And outside of class, if i have a bad day i have something to look forward to at the end of the day.
