taught Charlotte to love English. She inspired her students to love creative writing and literature. For example, when she read with a “beautiful deeply modulated voice,” the students sat “bewitched [and] transformed.” The teacher’s eyes and body language revealed her passion. When she taught about metaphors, for instance, Miss Hancock stood with her “arms raised, elbows bent, [and] palms facing” the students.
