Who was your favorite high school teacher and why?

Who was YOUR favorite high school teacher? I keep blanking on the names of mine (there were a couple), including the all-time winner, a warm, wise, wonderful woman who taught English at Hunter High School when I was there and also started a Women's Consciousness-Raising group in her spacious Manhattan living room that I was privileged to be a part of (as I recall, one Margaret Raymond also was a member, and I'll have to look her up to see if she remembers the name, because her memory is probably better than mine). She was sensitive and caring, crucial qualities for running a consciousness-raising group, and that pretty much made her #1 in my book.

Who was YOUR favorite high school teacher and why?

Happy remembering.
