Mayo Passion

Mayo Passion

Not all teachers are dull and boring as we think they are. They have their likes and dislikes just likes us, and this makes us human. In the case of Mayo staff, Mr. Carter and Mrs. Anderson are two staff members that have interesting activities they do on their free time and after school that make them good at what they do and teach us here at Mayo High School.

Mrs. Anderson is a great person in school and outside of school. I had her for my sophomore health class 2 years ago and I strongly think she is a great teacher and human being. She loves to help kids in school and one of the reasons she might be so successful with her job here at Mayo is because of what she does outside of school in her free time. For example, she likes to take care of herself doing simple things outdoors like gardening, and being around water and sunshine. Mrs. Anderson is into sports, she likes to play golf on the weekends also go biking. She is also into football, and is a Vikings fan. The game between Jets vs. Vikings was a game she thought was “disconnected” as Brett Favre kept on messing up during his passes. She’s a family person, Mrs. Anderson often calls her kids to check up on how and what they are doing. On Wednesday nights she likes to go out on a date night with her husband to a restaurant of their choice. I think she is successful in her job because of her style of living, maybe this is why kids come to her for help in school.

Current Human Geography and US History teacher, Mr. Carter is a cool guy and a great teacher (I should know this because I had him last year). What makes him really cool is that he has an interesting choice of activities in which he does in his spare time. When he gets home all he thinks about is to relax from a somewhat busy day at school. He has kids, and he likes to spend time with them, like playing legos with them. Speaking of legos; when he has the opportunity he likes plays Lego Star Wars a game for his Xbox360. Some stuff he likes to do is take out the dog for walks, cook and watch any kind of movie that isn’t a chick flick alone or with his wife. Mr. Carter and Mrs. Carter will go out somewhere and visit places on the weekends so most likely he will be busy during the weekend. One cool fact about him is that he likes to play, watch and coach soccer. He supports Manchester United F.C. just like me.

These are some stuff mayo staff Mr. Carter and Mrs. Anderson do on their spare time, after school and on weekends. They seem like they are boring but really their outside activities is what makes them human and successful with their jobs at school. In my opinion they are two of the best mayo staff and teachers I have had during my time at mayo.
