What is National Teacher Appreciation Week?
Teachers play a critical role in educating and shaping children's lives: the future leaders of countries all over the world.
While the saying "there is no bad student, only bad teachers" emphasizes the importance of teacher quality in student success, it is important to note that teachers are one of the hardest-working, patient, kind, dedicated, and sometimes underpaid groups in our society.
Teachers aim to mold children's lives in a positive direction, and people entrust their children to the teachers on a daily basis.
Therefore, it is extremely important to show appreciation to those who are tirelessly working to shape the future of our society.
That's why there's a day called National Teacher Day.
