    I just wanted to say that Mrs Roberts is a amazing genuine teacher. I may not remember everything she told me but I will always remember how special she made me feel. Not only did she believe in me, but she opened my eyes to what I could be, what I could do in a way I never thought was possible. This year, she made a positive impact on me that I can take to next school year. I use to doubt myself a lot and focus on what I couldn’t do but she taught me everything me that anything I wanted to be to put my mind up to and it will work. I just wanted to say thank you for putting in time with me when no one bothered. ❤️
