When a teacher favors a student, the student is called “the teacher's pet”, but what do you call a teacher favored by a student? Would they be called a student's pet? Whether you're the teacher's pet or not, everyone knows that students have their list of favorite teachers from when they were younger. The reasons why or how a teacher might end up on that list can go on and on. It could be because it was an easy class and the teacher let them do what they wanted or because the teacher sat with them and took the time to get to know them and encourage them to improve as much as possible. The possibilities are endless. I have a handful of teachers who are my absolute favorite teachers. Some of them were my high school agriculture teachers Brent Haken, Brad Chapman, and Scott Schaefer. My other Chapman was another teacher who truly inspired me to be a kinder person at heart. It also taught me patience. I remember every morning when he walked into class he would say hello to each student and say hello. Once everyone said goodbye, he would hand out some life-saving mints just for us to show up for class. Mr. Chapman always made sure that every student felt comfortable and never felt left out. He has involved so many kids through FFA. He was there to help his students. For example, I remember this time I was having trouble trying to break my heifer's halter. He came to the agriculture building on his free time and helped me work with her for at least four hours. When one of my other heifers got loose in the middle of the night and was nowhere to be found, he went out the next morning and helped my parents and I search for her from about ten that morning until about six. Night. He was always there if anyone needed him, he lifted people's morale and, most importantly, he encouraged everyone to do and do their best at all times. My other agriculture teacher, Scott Schaefer, did the exact same thing
