Teacher Spotlight: Braintree High Teacher Marjorie Cobb Led Her Classroom With Respect

BRAINTREE, MA — Great teachers matter. In Braintree High School, we’re fortunate to have teachers like Marjorie Cobb.

Patch has partnered with T-Mobile to recognize teachers and show them how much they’re valued and appreciated.

This submission comes from Suzanne Torres, who nominated Marjorie Cobb, of Braintree High School:

How do you know the teacher?

She was my English Literature teacher.

What does this person teach?

English Literature

Why do you believe the teacher should be recognized or honored?

She taught her class by respect and didn't need to even raise her voice once. When she entered the room the talk stopped because we were so enthused to have her for a teacher. She made every story worth pondering over. She is married to Nathan Cobb who did reviews for the Boston Globe. He reviewed rock concerts. Mrs Cobb brought in a slew of albums (yes back then that is how we listened to music). They were rock albums given to her husband to review. She gave them away to us for free.

What's one thing you want everyone to know about the teacher?

She was kind and very thoughtful and intelligent.
