Mom Talk: What Makes a Great Teacher?

It's Teacher Appreciation Week, and Patch wants to know what makes the best teachers great.

We're celebrating this week at Redondo Beach Patch. In honor of all those great teachers, we're making them the subject of this week's Mom Talk column.

We've all had at least one great teacher—one who stimulates our desire to learn, who inspires us to be our best, who truly made a difference in our life. These teachers teach all sorts of subjects, ranging from English to algebra to physical education.
