Importance of feeling valued Long before differentiation (区分) was used in education, I was lucky enough to have two teachers who gave me meaningful tasks that were different from my classmates’. I was able to explore in my own way. I learned a lot for sure, but what I really learned was that I was valued as an individual (个人). Now I am a teacher and I differentiate so that my students can learn. They, too, are valued as individuals. — Lorraine Jacques, Connecticut

Seeing a bright future In the 8th grade, my art teacher, Mrs. Griffin, changed me by saying the following words, “I do not want you to invite me to your high school graduation. I want you to invite me to your college graduation.” Eight years later, I became the first person in my family to graduate from college. When I sent out invitations to my college graduation ceremony, Mrs. Griffin was the first person on my list. — Angela Estrella, California

▲ In school, I learned not to take no for an answer. In high school, a favorite teacher told me that I would never win a public-speaking contest. It made me so mad that I entered a national contest and won first in the state and third in the nation. I keep my public-speaking medals in my bookcase as a reminder that there is always a way. We should not let anyone else decide what we can achieve. — Lori L. Batts, Maryland
