   Step 1: Compliment your teacher on her positive attitude and energy.

   For example, you may say: “Thank you for coming into class every day with enthusiasm and excitement.
   
   You are great at breaking down difficult concepts so I can understand them clearly.
   
   I really appreciate your teaching style and I feel like I am learning important, useful things in your classroom.”
