What was his/her name and what year was it? Where are they today? When was the last time you spoke? Mine was my kindergarten teacher, Mrs. Almond, in 1960. In fact, she looked like an almond - tall, slender with blondish hair and a long face. Sadly, she passed away while I was serving in the Gulf War and my mom sent me the obituary. Last time I saw her was in 1969.

my very first schoolteacher way back in the early 80s was Ms Elvie, my kindergarten teacher. i was five years old during that time and i dropped out because my nanny wouldn't buy me iced candy from a vendor near the school gate. ms elvie was a pretty young lady and even had a romantic relationship with my uncle.

Her name was Mrs.Bazely and she was my rhymes teacher and school correspondent.I joined in LK.G.in 1984 and on my first day to school i cried a lot as my mom and aunt left the school premises.I could remember bazely hugged me and wiped my tears and made me sit in my class room.Even at that time she may be around 50 years and she passed away when i was pursuing class 10 in the same school.She is a wonderful human being served her entire life for the upliftment of our school.

My first teacher was a preschool teacher at church. Mrs. Pepper. She was a small thin older woman, very stern. (kinda scarry I thought) I never saw her again because after that year we moved from the area.

My kindergarden teacher was Mrs. Terry, in 1959. I haven't seen her since 1963. I don't know where she is or if she is deceased, she'd be pretty old today.

My kindergarten teacher was Mrs. Ryan. She was an old lady, past retirement age for sure. She had us each bring in a box of Kleenex to keep in our cupboard with our indoor shoes. Every day at the beginning of class we were to take a tissue and tuck it inside our sleeve so we had it when needed. She always had one tucked into her sleeve. I wonder if she had an aversion to runny noses.

My first ever school teachers are Mrs. Lagutap and Mrs. Laxamana. Both of them were my techers in Nursery and Kindergarten. I don't have any communication with them anymore but we were able to talk to each other when I was in college and my cousin, Derick, who's studying there in Grace Learning Center, where all of us cousins studied, was late and I went with him to the school. She just asked me how I was doing and about my plans in life and she can't believe that it's really me.

My first teacher was Teacher Benita in 1969. She looked like a cartoon character because she ties her head like a bun and wears big glasses. She was already old when she was my teacher, she taught me discipline at my early years. I cant forget her, she passed away in the 80s.

My first grade teacher was Mrs. Murray in 1960. It was kind of neat because she was also, my mother's first grade teacher. I can't remember the last time I saw her, but I know she retired a few years before my son started school. I was hoping he would have her as his teacher too.
