Ode to Teacher, Part Two

Dr. Klimpson

My Latin teacher for this year. He is one of the best teachers I've ever had. I mean this is the strict sense of the word: he is organized, he assigns regular and the right amount of homework, he communicates very well, he laughs with us without getting buddy-buddy, and the students respect him. And he loves Latin without it being annoying.

I've had one-two-three-four-five Latin teachers now, but Dr. K probably takes the prize-- maybe. I've done Latin in various uncoventional settings.

ACH! It's late and I still have so much to do! Well, Dr. Klimpson is an excellent teacher and one I'm very proud to be taught by. Except when I get 77s on his tests.
