Mrs. Thompson，a school teacher，told the children on the first day that she loved them all the same．But that was a lie．There in the front row was a little boy named Teddy Stoddard．He didn't get along well with the other children and he always needs a bath．She did not like him．

    Then Mrs. Thompson got to know that Teddy was a very good boy before the death of his mother．Mrs. Thompson was ashamed of herself．She felt even worse when，like all her other students，Teddy bought her a present，too．It was his mother's perfume(香水)．

    Teddy said，"Mrs. Thompson，today you smell just my mom used to．" After the children left she cried for an hour．On that very day，she stopped being busy teaching , reading, writing and math．Instead，she began to care more about the children．

    Mrs. Thompson paid more attention to Teddy．The more she encouraged him，the faster he improved．By the end of Grade 6，Teddy had become one of the smartest children in the class．

    Six years went by before she got a note from Teddy．He wrote that he had finished high school， and she was still the best teacher he had ever had in his whole life．He went to college．Mrs. Thompson got two more letters from him with the last one signed，Theodore F. Stoddard，M.D.(醫(yī)學(xué)博上)．

    The story doesn't end there．On his wedding day，Dr. Stoddard said，"Thank you，Mrs. Thompson，for believing in me．You made me feel good about myself and showed me that I could make a difference."

    Mrs. Thompson，with tears in her eyes，said "Teddy，you have it all wrong．You were the one who taught me that I could make a difference．I didn't know how to teach until I met you．"
