My Story for Mr. Schwindt Mr. Schwindt is an awesome English teacher because he makes learning about stories and writing actually interesting. He makes me excited to go to class because of the way he explains things and the fun activities we do to understand what we are reading. I know Mr. Schwindt cares about me because he always pays attention to how I’m doing and encourages me to share my ideas. He has made me a much more confident student by helping me improve my writing and showing me that my voice matters. Whether he is helping me with a tough essay in the classroom or just being a supportive teacher who listens, he has made a huge difference in my 7th-grade year at Harney Middle School. I feel like a better student because of his class!
