Hello Mr. Herring,

You may or may not remember me. I was your 8th grade algebra student for the 1994-1995 schoolyear.
I looked you up because I have been wanting to express my gratitude. That year, I started falling
behind in my assignments. You became concerned for my progress and phoned my mother. You told her
that for you, my learning the material was more important than a grade. And, you gave me the
opportunity to make up every bit of homework I’d missed just so I could learn the important
fundamentals of Algebra.
That was really a turning point in my math education. I’m pleased to tell you that I graduated
from the University of Maryland with a Civil Engineering degree in 2005. I’ve been a practicing
structural engineer ever since, and I’ve currently been promoted to a project manager at a local
consulting firm. I sincerely believe that I wouldn’t be an engineer if it weren’t for you. I’m
happily married with two rambunctious boys and live in Gaithersburg, MD. Mr. Herring, again, I
wanted to thank you for being a great educator who made a difference in my life. I hope you are
enjoying retirement.
Respectfully,
Nehemias Iglesias
P.S.
To this day, I still remember you voice saying all algebraic statements begin with the word “Let”

Yeah, it made the eyes water!

What is it, Don White, jealousy that makes you so bitter about the letter I received? I suppose you
noticed the boy was Mexican. Kinda takes some of the wind out of your 'racist teacher' comments I
suppose. Is that what made you upset enough to try to trash the thread? I suppose your pal feels
just as badly.

Who's bitter?
I simply asked a pertinent question, considering your comments about students in the past. I'm pleased that you helped 'one'.
