Favorite Student?

Question

Have you ever had a favorite student that you will always remember? If so, why?

Answer 1

i have a question... do teachers like students cuz they are really good academically?

Answer 2

I have a different favorite every year for different reasons.  Kindness, intelligence, sense of humor, all of these are qualities my favorite students have had.

Answer 3

I don't agree with having a "class pet."  If there's a student you enjoy the company of fine, but don't make a big deal about it because students can tell.  It's about positive reinforcement and fairness...not favoritism.

Answer 4

Yes. she is a funny and unique student. she love to help people

Answer 5

no favorite students. school is place where everyone should be given same importance by a teacher. no partiality's and no favorites

Answer 6

I can't say I have one favorite student that I will always remember, but I can say I do tend to have a "favorite" each year. It's hard not to! It's important not to let on to them or to the others though!

Answer 7

As a special education teacher, I will always remember my students.  They won't necessarily be my favorites all the time, but I will always remember them, lol.

Answer 8

i know people have favorite students.

its not because they are smart ^ ^ ^

its because they dont whine, work hard

and try hard.

most teachers actually think the smartest kid is annoying because they are so cocky and think they know it all

Answer 9

Yeah, he was a good kid.  Wasn't the best academically, but the one who feels comfortable enough to tell you his life story (which wasn't very long, he's was only 9) and came to me for advise and for all those "big" but really small problems about friends.  lol.  He was a great kid with such great potential, just not completely on track.  I guess I kinda felt like I was there to help him, like that was my purpose that year.
