Life-Changing Teaching Award Nominee
NGAN TRAN
BENNETT-KEW LEADERSHIP ACADEMY OF EXCELLENCE (P-8)

STUDENT RECOGNITION STORY

Ms. Tran has truly been a blessing to our family. From the very beginning, it was clear that she doesn’t just teach, she genuinely cares about each of her students and their growth, both academically and emotionally. What makes her so special is the way she creates a classroom environment where students feel safe, encouraged, and excited to learn. My daughter actually looks forward to going to school, which speaks volumes. She comes home eager to share what she’s learned, and that excitement is something every parent hopes for. She takes the time to understand each child individually and meets them where they are. I’ve seen a noticeable difference in my daughter’s confidence, especially in reading. Instead of feeling discouraged, she now feels motivated and proud of her progress—and that’s directly because of the patience, encouragement, and support her teacher consistently provides. Beyond academics, she shows her students that they matter. Whether it’s through her kindness, her positive reinforcement, or simply the way she listens, she makes it clear that she truly cares about them as people. Inside and outside the classroom, she goes above and beyond. As a parent, it gives me peace of mind knowing my child is in such capable, compassionate hands. She is, without a doubt, the best teacher my daughter has had since starting school, and we are incredibly grateful for the impact she’s making. Teachers like her don’t just educate, they inspire, uplift, and shape the future. Thank you for everything you do.
