My school is known for it's teachers. They are so helpful, intelligent, and interested. They go out of their way to help you in any way possible. They give us their home phone numbers and a schedule of the classes that they teach so you can get ahold of them whenever you need them. They email you back as quickly as possible even if it is one in the morning. They know what they are teaching and how to make it interesting. I have talked to other students at other schools and their teachers would never give that information.
