Stanton College Prep
Jacksonville, FL
Vanessa Knight is an awesome teacher who works tirelessly for her students and makes learning interesting and fun. She takes the time to craft lessons that encourage students to think critically and analytically about the content and how it affects life and the world around them. Each weekend, she prepares and shares the upcoming weekly plans with her students. I don’t know where she finds the time for all of the planning and grading she does, but she makes it look easy. She’s so efficient and effective because she’s been teaching for many years and she also mentors other teachers. She always tells us to “use time wisely!” And this is exactly what she does! After school, Mrs. Knight sponsors the UNICEF club and works with students to get service hours for community outreach work. Even with all that she does in and out of the classroom to teach and support students, she’s also working on her doctorate at the same time!! She’s an awesome English teacher who shows us every day that learning is fun and empowering.and that learning doesn’t end in high school or college. She’s definitely an excellent teacher and role-model.
