“For a while science has been the toughest subject for me. I have always kept good grades and succeeded in it, but science has changed a perspective in my life now with having Mrs.Benson as a teacher. She is such a bright and energetic person, which already sets such a good environment in the class and makes everyone including me ready to learn. There is never not a day that she does not make me laugh, which is such a blessing to have. I now am always excited to go to science and get to experience more and more of her class, which is always a fun and light-hearted time. You would think for a teacher their 7th period class would be a drag and boring because everyone is wanting to get out, but no, Mrs. Benson is always up at her desk, standing up and showing her passion to us every single day. You can tell how much she loves what she does, though we are a loud class, she just adds on to the fun, which makes my passion for science grow by the second. I have loved having her my 8th grade year, and I am so jealous of the people who get to experience her class that I would kill to be in again.”
