Dear Global Teacher Prize Academy Committee, I am very pleased to recommend Dr. Katherine Heavers for the Global Teacher Prize. I was a 12th grade student in her class from 2014 to 2015. The course was called Human Anatomy and Physiology, but that name does not do everything she taught me justice. In her classes, she sets aside five to ten minutes for students in one of the most competitive N.J. schools to relax with yoga techniques. Reinvigorated, students listen to a quote from Dr. Heavers and relax for a minute of peace, possibly the only minute of silence besides sleeping that the students get all day.…
She was a caring person. She would want to be recalled as a person who wanted to strive and change how certain things ran. She simply would want to be known as a person who had dreams and goals. She would want to be remembered for her, and not the way other people perceived…

Gloria Perea is the kind of person I want for my neighbor. She is the kind of person we want to recruit and keep in our country, not run off. She epitomizes the best of the American spirit and work ethic. I have known Gloria in a professional capacity for about 15 years. She worked as a bilingual paraprofessional in the middle school where I teach and I have maintained contact with her since she moved on to the high school.…

Today I am going to talk, in very abridged form, a little bit about my experience of getting to know the amazing person who goes by the name of Cecilia Bernard, and what I have learned about her over the past three years of knowing her, which was both a fortunate and unfortunate event. Fortunate, obviously, because I got to meet her and see everything great about her. Unfortunate, though, as it took me as long as it did to meet her. What I first learned about her is that she was very open and inviting. I found this out on the way to New Orleans.…
An effective school leader should possess skills such as creativity, implementation, evaluation, and excellent communication. I conducted an interview with Tamara Perez, who is currently a director at Smart Starts Preschool. She has an A.A. degree in Early Childhood Education, Staff Credentials, Director Credentials, and has been teaching for 12 years. Becoming a teacher was not exactly what she had in mind. She was going through a rough time in her life and she began working as a teacher.…

Always taking initiative and delivering top notch results are her forte. She is not one to shy away from a problem or challenge. Some of the examples of the quality work include the scrap and processing time reduction project where she was able to develop a realistic troubleshooting model based on an extensive study of process conditions.…
Nana’s Touch On the evening of June 17, 2013, my mother spoke three words that forever changed my life. She said “Madison, she’s gone,” and my stomach dropped twelve feet below the surface and my whole world turned inside out and upside down. My Nana was the first real loss in my life. My family and I would visit room 107 to see her beautiful glowing face every week.…
On my first day of my observation and I began meeting with Principal Phillip. Principle Phillip kindly introduced me to the school and told me what is expected from me as a guest in her school. She then provided me with a schedule of the different classrooms I would be observing. She then walked me over to Mrs. Supple’s class where I was quickly introduced. I sat down in the back of the class and started taking notes.…
This course has provided me with a constructive and academic study of the opportunities and challenges faced in International Marketing. Through my group project, case study, Newsline, lectures, and exams/quizzes, I have gained valuable knowledge that I can apply to my future. It has allowed me to reflect on issues in marketing that I am familiar with from a new global perspective. I now understand the importance of acquiring a global mentality for marketing while learning the differences between marketing in a classical sense and an international sense.…
have chosen my cousin Rajvir, who I feel that personifies what it means to live in God 's image. I believe that Rajvir is a follower of God and has a positive attitude towards different situations such as when our grandpa passed away in 2001. My cousin was really close with him and shared many thoughts with him. So when my grandpa suddenly passed away from a heart attack it really did affect her, instead of keeping it in her mind and always thinking about it she decided to grieve all at once, and help her family such as her grandma, mom and aunt and uncle get through the tough time with positive messages and not try to distract them to not over think about it or to even think about it at all. My cousin is always very accepting and is not judge-full…
