Assignment: Imagine that you are twenty-eight years old, and you're writing to a cherished teacher whom you haven't heard from in ten years. Tell him/her about your professional life. What do you do for a living and how did you get there? Consider the following: What schools did you attend? What special training and degrees do you have? Where do you work and what is the name of your company? What do your coworkers and boss think of you? What professional successes and awards have you enjoyed since graduating from high school.
Dear Teacher,
I hope that even after a decade of absence you still remember me. It has been ten years since I stepped in your class and took your exams and listened to your lectures. Today I am still attending school preparing myself for the next step which is my doctorate. I am currently a fourth grade teacher. And I am proud to announce that I have created a program which allows inner city children explore the world around them, interacting with other students all around the world in their classroom. My goals are to continue my studies and hopefully become a principal. I have been named teacher of the year in the state of New Jersey for my determination and dedication to the children of my school. I must admit that my dream to change the world in no way has changed during these ten years I continue to pursue it with ardor. My dreams to bring the world to children less fortunate is becoming a reality before my eyes, so far three neighboring school systems have adopted my idea and I hope many more will follow. It has been ten years since I was a student with big dreams and today ten years later I am growing closer to fulfilling them.
