Teachers are the most respected people in everybody’s life, and they deserve to be valued. We all came across some teachers who not only changed our perception of the world we live in but also inspired us to be the best version of ourselves. Whether a school teacher, professor, online or private tutor, they are a treasure to students. Teaching is the only profession that creates all other professions around the globe. They work day and night towards building the bright future of their students. Pick any master, and their success story would be incomplete without a great teacher.
Everybody needs appreciation to stay motivated and walk on the challenging paths of life with zeal and hope, and so do our teachers. Days like the end of the year, sessions, or teachers’ days are considered best to send a message of appreciation to their teacher. However, one should never wait a whole year to express appreciation or gratitude to the best teachers. Here is a list of 101 best teacher appreciation and thank you notes for you. Pick one that relates to your experience and defines your teacher well and share with them via online, text message, printed or posted form.
