    She has been a great support and treats me like family. She understands her students and makes work feel fun. I learn visually and she has been teaching visually to make sure each student knows what to learn. She has helped us all build and understand what to do for our future that not all teachers do. I’m glad to have her as my teacher

    1- yo diría que una por las cuales creo que es increíble sería que sabe explicar muy bien, nos ayuda en cualquier momento y es un gran apoyo tanto en los estudios como cosas personales. 2- me gusta su conocimiento en museos y historias de muchos países me gusta esta clase porque siempre nos nombra un museo nuevo y sus aventuras en los países. 3- cuando ve a alguien mal habla con esa persona y le brinda su apoyo, ella sabe comprender muy bien su voz es suave y dulce y te ayuda a aliviarte y sentirte en confianza. 4- Para ser un estudiante mejor ella me busca en mis clases cuando no termino algo ella me da una segunda oportunidad para terminar mis tareas y subir mis grados y mantenerlos bien y con la confianza ella deja que expresemos nuestras ideas y opiniones también nos felicita por lo que hacemos aunque a veces tengamos errores ella siempre sabe que decirnos para que estemos orgullosos de nuestro esfuerzo. 5- me apoyado con mis tareas cuando pido información de algo que no entiendo ella me lo explica las veces que sean necesarias para que yo comprenda y fuera de lo que son las clases ella apoya mucho y nos da la confianza para contarle lo que sea no me a pasado a mí ya que le mantengo estable con mis problemas pero cuando ve a alguien que está mal siempre se preocupa y habla sobre lo que nos pasa y intenta comprender porque estamos mal Ella simplemente es la palabra “perfección”

    Mrs. Alden made 2nd grade the best grade ever! I had so much fun in 2nd grade. Some things that I looked forward every day is the “Creation Station” where you can play with Legos and other stuff. Mrs. Alden also gives us lots of tickets and every Friday she will pick one student from the tickets! Every Wednesday we called people at Yale via Google Meets and we worked on math related work. It was probably very hard for Mrs. Alden to teach my class because she taught our class right after Covid-19 and we all had to where masks. Mrs. Alden helped me out of school because whenever a few of my friends and myself would get 4’s (A’s/A+’s), Mrs. Alden would get us ice cream and that was great! She made my whole class feel confident by making us speak in front of different classes while at the same time making it fun. Anyway that is why I think she should be recognized as one of the best teachers ever!

    This teacher was my 2nd grade one, she was the nicest teacher so far. Once she came to my birthday party and it was great! She supported me in pursuing my path to learning more about English Language Arts, and being nice and energetic and not dull and boring. Me and this teacher have a connection, she taught me a plethora of things that could support me in the higher grades! She was the best and nicest teacher, which is why I chose to honor Mrs. Alden!
