Did you have a teacher that helped you and inspired you at schoo

I found this moving speech in English by a British actor that
presents the letter that the French writer Albert Camus wrote to
his elementary school teacher, on the occasion of getting the
Nobel Prize for literature in 1957.
It is never too late to thank those who believed in us. Where
you lucky enough to have a teacher that inspired you in a
positive way, that gave you an affectionate hand when you were a
schoolboy like Albert Camus had?

I can think of two that really stood out (and one more from when
I was very little but I don't recall much from back then). They
were smart, hilarious, well read, they both loved poetry and
encouraged us to read great books and think about them. They
were the people I would go to whenever I wrote something because
I knew they wouldn't praise me just for the sake of it. They
were critical but fair.

I studied Mathematics & Physics at high school and would like to
thank all those who helped me out to see the beauty in math.
