text: i dunno if i should e-mail my old teacher? ok, in 6th grade i had the greatest teacher ever. and i havent seen or talked to her since the last day of 6th grade so its been just under 3yrs. i barely found my old elementary school website a few minutes ago and i can e-mail my old teacher from the web site  but i'm ebarressed to send the e-mail. she rly loved/loves her students so should i send the e-mail to just say hi i think she mite like that or should i just not worry about sending it? i know it's dumb but im cunfused so should i or not?   thanks for any advice only you know best what's good for you and her because you were her student. but if i were you, i would definitely go for it. i'm the kind of student (now a high school freshman) who has been blessed enough to have several teachers who have made a positive and significant difference in my life. and i told them about it, and it's just a great experience and relationship. you just can't have that kind of relationship with anyone other than a teacher, because, like any other relationship, all are difference. i would definitely do it. don't feel embarassed. write what you feel. don't try to make it sound professional -- this is an old, favorite teacher of yours. if she really is a favorite, you should feel comfortable enough to feel like yourself around her. trust me, i would do it -- teachers love getting that kind of thing, you'll feel better that you did it, and maybe you could make a difference in each other's lives. and if you're unsure of how to do it, it's like what my all-time favorite social studies teacher has been telling me lately, "just do it."
