How to write a thank-you note to a teacher

Young readers: it’s almost the end of your semester. Here are some of the messages from students in our FAA Ground School class at MIT (back in January) that would have warmed my heart if engineers had hearts…

[ Sloan executive MBA track; Chinese] It was wonderful to be your student. Thank you for teaching us.

[Chinese] Thank you to you and Tina again for the wonderful ground school over the past three days! I really enjoyed it and learned a lot. … Safe travels back to Florida, and thanks again!

I really enjoyed the ground school this past week.

[European] I would like to express my sincere appreciation for your guidance during the Private Pilot Ground School. The course was fun, insightful and has left me well-prepared for the upcoming FAA knowledge test.

Thank you for this class. Genuinely, I enjoyed everything that I learned.

Thank you all for this class. Really appreciated it.

Now that we live in the email age, don’t forget that it is easy to thank a teacher! I recommend copying the first example! It’s Mother’s Day and this is definitely the kind of thing that most moms would like to see a child do!

  1. Damn straight they should grateful for such a good teacher, good job Tina. A good teacher is worth their weight in apples.

    🍎 for you too Dr. Phil, for educating me on immigrants, masks, and the uncountable advantages of Florida. Florida 🍊 too.

  2. Didn’t have any remarkable teachers in Calif* public school or the bottom tier blog commenter university. The billionaire factory of Boston was a different world.

  3. Hi Phil why you like the first one the most? Isn’t the European one more detailed and longer and therefore better?

  4. > would have warmed my heart if engineers had hearts

    I would argue that real engineers do have hearts, even if just for the will to create. Finbros…well, creative accounting can only make hearts so large (Grinch pre attitude change).
