WILLIAM SNYDER ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

STUDENT RECOGNITION STORY

My 3rd and 4th grade teacher, Ms. Vinograd, is an awesome teacher and human being because throughout my 2 years of learning with her, not only has she helped me learn so much on an educational level, but she also helped me become a better person towards others, and actually knew how to show care to each and every single one of us. Some of the things that she did that made me excited to go to class were the facts that she always made each learning experience so fun, and even if you didn't understand the material she knew how to make sure we got it, even if it meant it'll take time off of her personal time. Ms. Vinograd made sure to let us know that she cared about me by always realizing that something was off about me whenever I was having an off day, and always making sure that she talked one on one with each and one of her students. Ms. Vinograd was able to make me a better and confident student by always helping me get over things that I might be struggling with, whether it'd be an academic or personal struggle, and she didn't care how long it might take, be she eventually made sure that she accomplished her goal of helping us get over that struggle. Ms. Vinograd has helped me inside the classroom by making me start liking school a lot more, and realizing that there're lots of ways and methods of learning besides your basic, boring, and draining, way of studying or reviewing your work; and shes supported me outside of the classroom by helping me become a more open and social type of person and become a lot more of a joyous person. Overall, Ms. Vinograd was, and is one of the greatest teachers I've ever had, she was more than just a teacher, always going above and beyond making sure that everyone is treated equally with care and respect and making sure no one feels or gets left out, and helping them with whatever they might be struggling with. (For sure deserves a crazy raise).
