“Mr. Sever is an incredible, hardworking teacher. He’s incredibly nice and always encouraging students to do his best. He teaches us valuable skills in life that will really take us far. He shows us why grit, compassion, and determination matters. I’ve had teachers that say they care and only do half the work. Mr. Sever really proves it, he wants to see everyone succeed. He teaches us this quickest way to do something but easily as well. He’s efficient in the way he teaches us. If one of us doesn’t understand, he takes his time to go teach that student individually. This is my 4th year of being under his guidance and I’ve learned more in his class than any of my others combined. He is truly a one of a kind teacher and should be recognized for it.”
