My sister Amber has always been my hero, but it was not
until lately that I learned she is also a super hero! Amber is an AP Calculus teacher at Amador
High in Pleasanton, California and in addition to molding young mathematical minds
she runs the leadership program at the high school. She oversees students who are responsible for
literally ever activity that runs at the school which includes homecoming,
prom, rallies, and every aspect involved in planning these events. When I was in high school I always knew that
my teachers were important, but it wasn’t until now that I realized that a teacher’s
job does not stop when the bell rings.
I am amazed by the
commitment my sister has for her job and students. She is
determined to not only teach children math, but strives to have them understand
the information. She continually holds
extra class hours so that her students fully understand the lessons and tutors
students after school. In addition to
all of her math commitments she spends countless extra hours making sure ever
school event runs without a hitch. I do
not know how she is able to do it all with so much ease and grace. After watching the amount she does for her
students I can guarantee she is not only my hero, but is the hero of hundreds
of others.
