On the first day of the Spring semester I told you all that I expected to learn more from you than you would from me. I can say with all sincerity that my prediction came true. Yeah, I know you all learned something this semester (after all, I did read every word that you all wrote), but I can honestly say that I learned volumes. Nothing they taught me at San Francisco State University compares to what I learned from you.
I just want to thank you all for making my first teaching experience satisfying, challenging, rewarding, and (believe it or not) fun. All of you were incredibly patient with me, and I will never forget these eighteen weeks I spent with you in Room 221. I wish you all the best of luck in whatever your future brings, and yadda yadda yadda, bla bla bla, etc., etc., and so forth....
Suffice it to say: I'll miss you all.
Have fun. Live well. Learn stuff. Love much. Go out and listen to live music. Go out and see live theater. Take chances. Question authority. Be nice to old folks, though.
Oh...
...and thank you for not putting tacks on my chair, or taping a 'kick me sign' on my back, or slipping something dangerous into my lunch.
Peace,
~Mr. Lyon
(or, as most people call me out in the real world: "Jeff")

Damn Mr. Lyon, 3 In the morning? Are you crazy? Lol. Anyways, I just came by to read what you had to say to our class. :] And I also came to thank you. Seriously Mr. Lyon, Thank you for always being so wicked awesome. I am seriously glad you taught us. I love Ms. B but you're pretty awesome too. Haha. Thank you for teaching me to look deeper into literature and encouraging me to do well and always telling me I can do it I just need to see it for myself. Thanks! And I hope you have a great future in becoming a teacher because you are an excellent one!

Heh, I agree with Melody.
It's been a pretty fun class and I'm positive everyone learned at least something. Thanks for being such an enthusiastic teacher and making us read those literature the way you did. I really enjoyed reading them all. =D
Most Sincerely,
Wilson
