### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Teacher Gift
*by J***D on August 15, 2025*

Gave to my wife as a gift of encouragement as an Educator in her final year. She’s a great teacher, and loves the kids, just bogged down by so many other data duties and other responsibilities that truly have nothing to do with actual teaching. This was to remind her of her impact over her career on thousands of kids. She has SO many that later have kids of their own and request her to teach their children. She’s that rare combination of a great teacher who makes learning fun and draws so many to be better students from then on.
