Recent Quotes from Students (& Parents)

These show how the use of technology has enhanced the human element of teaching by allowing more time for high-impact face-to-face interaction, in class time, made possible by moving content-based-learning into down-time.

…like being in a class like biology where there is so much technology and there is room to build relationships... in other classes, there is no time for that you go in, do notes go home that is it there is no interaction, no special connecting WHEREAS there is in biology!

Mr. Douch - you will always be my favourite and by far the most inspirational teacher of all time ;) You have taught me so much more than Biology this year Mr. Douch - perhaps this is why you are my favourite teacher.

- Nayna (Student from another school – whom I only ever taught by podcast!!)

hey douchy,

i just want to say thank you for a fantastic year! ... when you told us we could leave i think everyone sat there in shock, they didn’t want it to be over! your such an amazing person. you put so much into this year for us, ... but it wasn't only the effort you put into the work we did but also you took the time to get to know us and be there for us not only as a teacher but a friend too. you bring life to the classroom and are a great inspiration to us all... you will never be forgotten by any of us Douchy.

... you were more than a thing that came with a class. you were amazing... You have influenced me in such a way. I don’t look at life the same. Everything is so much more beautiful. I’m sure at the start of the year you were not expecting this kind of outcome. This bond between a group of people whose common factor is Biology Unit 3+4. It’s just so strong. I feel the pain and happiness in everyone’s achievements in the class. The way the class has grown into a hard working bunch of people who are prepared to put themselves on the line for the greater good. It is so cool.

You should be so proud.

Today I wanted to say so much to you, but every time I went to say something, even a simple "thank you", I just started crying and couldn't get any of the words out. So here I am, writing an email, to try and express what I am feeling, and what you mean to me. ... You take the time to make sure I am ok, to give me this whole new look upon life, and you give me the energy to keep going. You make me want to keep going. Wherever my future takes me, you will be there right with me. Perhaps not physically, but in my mind, in my heart, you will be there...

- Kathryn (student)

Im happy to voice any opinions for you. You are truly an inspirational person.. and I’m sure all students wish to repay you in any way possible. You take teaching to another level which is wonderful. We put in more effort purely because we know how much you do :)
