ITS SO SAD WHAT PUBLIC SCHOOLS ARE TEACHING TO OUR CHILDREN IT SICKENS ME. I PRAY EVERYDAY (I PRAY ALL DAY) THAT MORE PEOPLE WILL LIVE BETTER LIVES ,HAVE MORE COMPASSION FOR OTHERS AND LOOSE THE HATE THAT SEEMS TO BE SPREADING LIKE WILDFIRE.
PORNSTARLIVESMATTER yes I agree! I am in an high school public school and all they do is make students compete for good grades and fight only for gpa. They put so much stress on us and on top of all of that they teach the wrong things we probably won’t need in the future.
Now at 65 years old, if I try to reflect back on why more students liked me than hated me, you may think that I would have enough data to write a book. Truth be known, I have no idea. But I always was slightly supersticious. I always worried, and still do today, if I delved too deeply into "what my secret was", it would disappear. Here is what I have gleened, and it was true when I started my teaching career, and I suspect will be true for centuries to come... STUDENTS DO NOT CARE WHAT YOU KNOW UNTIL THEY KNOW HOW MUCH YOU CARE. If I had a gift, it was expressing how much I cared about my kids whether they would make an "A", or less in my class. I would be silly, play Disney theme songs, create foolish memory tricks if it helped my kids. Some of my kids would tell you I jumped up on their desks. Obviously, they are mistaken. No "teacher college" can teach those methods. Afterall, those are not methods. All my years in the classroom, I was, for bad or good, me. Just me.

Well then, Mr McLeod, you were yourself and thus the person God intended you to be... and it shows, with the heartwarming tributes from your students! The proof is in the testimony!
JOIN THE CLUB LOL. I PRAY THINGS GET BETTER IN THIS WORLD. IM A CHRISTAIN BUT DO NOT ATTEND CHURCH DUE TO HEALTH( I RARELY LEAVE THE HOUSE) BUT SEEING THIS GIVES ME HOPE THAT THERE WILL BE A NEW GENERATION OF LOVING PEOPLE DUE TO IN PART WHAT THIS TEACHER INSTILLED IN THEM!
@@jimmcleod7286 I think that's some teachers problem. They try to keep their personal life way to secret. And it makes it seem like they are always faking their own personality in the class room. Where as you, I'm sure just acts the same as if you were around your grown up friends. Maybe slightly less silly, but the same non the less. Teachers who show that they are human and not some robot there to teach, definitely make more a difference
Dear Ximena, Even as step away from teaching biology and being the Department head, I hope to continue to teach astronomy. Jim McLeod of the Clan McLeod
Micalah, I have no idea where that line came from. I guess it was a mixture of terror and hamming it up like I often do in my classroom. Jim McLeod of the Clan McLeod
I have no clue how I ended up here but I cried my eyes out, what a truly beautiful video, what a great community and aw this man seems to be so amazing. I'm just so touched. This is so great!
just for the record, I'm not against black people..but I am against racist "black liberation" groups who spread fear, hate and slander..............we need to show love but at the same time withought giving them an inch and also standing our ground.......NO MORE WHITE GUILT!..............America is GREAT!..America IS a blessing..and NO we have nothing to feel guilty about.
Natalie, actually I am pretty much like anyone else who pulls their pants on one leg at a time. I am horrible at some things, and maybe gifted at other things. I suppose the trick is in finding where to expend one's energy. Jim McLeod of the Clan McLeod
From the way these students talked about him you can tell the impact he had and the way he valued not just how he taught but also what his students learned about science and the love for life. I wish I had a teacher like him growing up. Very touching. Im very happy for him.
@@jimmcleod7286 Hey brother Jim i am so happy that you teached them about our faith and reached out too them.I thank our father for Jesus Christ in you.I was a atheist and i hated religion.9 years ago i had scoliosis and i was in a lot off pain i lost my job and a christian prayed for me and all the pain left and i haven’t had back pain for 9 years i felt like the hole i had in my soul was gone after the prayer as well.That day i got baptized and gave my life to Jesus.I have prayed for many others after that and they have been healed most off them.God bless you and i speak the peace off Christ over you that surpasses all understanding Amen.
That would be so cool! I've heard these glasses don't actually make you see the colors you cannot see without them. They just separate and make the colors you can see more clear.
Why must some people attack this wonderful man because he has used his belief in his god to steer his path through life. I am actually an atheist, not even an agnostic, but I respect this man enormously and I share his love of his fellow man, the compassion and humanity he shows. It is clear from these young people that they owe him a massive debt but it is also clear that he thinks little of that, he just does it because he knows it is the way all people should live. It is so sad that some have to attack him just because he believes in a god they don't. Whether there is an after life or not is irrelevant, this man is tattooed into the hearts of hundreds of young people.
Yeah I never understood why, with all the wonderful flavors of the world they choose salty. I love and respect this comment, thank you for not being afraid to voice your opinions.
How dedicated has someone to be to get such a great gift? He must be such a great person. I don't remember any teacher at my previous schools, who we would have done something like this for. I don't know him, but I already like him. His students/pupils are lucky having him
Dear Ann, no, No, NO... I am NOT a great person. I promise you that for every gift I may seem to possess, I have a dozen guilts trying to drag me backwards. I attempt to focus on the positives, and learn from the negatives. Sweet Ann, you can too. I have no Hogwart's elixer. My hope and strength lies elsewhere. Jim McLeod of the Clan McLeod
The way people react to these glasses reminds me of a child's enthusiasm of seeing new things. And that makes these videos so special. I am working towards bringing this enthusiasm back in my life, eventhough I am not color-blind. Beautiful
A small glimpse of what waits for us in heaven. True love and compassion for one another. Well done to all involved in this mans life and to him for just being a great teacher and person. Respect.
Its Mr. Holland's opus all over again! You have truly had a huge impact on your students over the years and they are grateful for having the opportunity to be mentored by you. Brought tears to my eyes.
This man is on top of the world. Recognizing someone who has done great things is such a gesture to such people. To know they are appreciated and their efforts are seen is just a cherry on top.
My guess is that most people know someone worthy of a tribute. What led to mine was an unlikely merging of people who were in the position to make it happen. Lorenz, whose tribute will you initiate?
Haj Tom the view from earth is amazing. Unfortunately, when looking outside from earth, it's all latte color. The actual color of the sun is not orange/yellow/red..it's just bright white.
To Mr.McLeod just watching this makes me have hope my child will have a teacher like you and how highly your students really think of you. You've inspired millions in my eyes
I had never even heard of these glasses - here in England we are way behind the times when it comes to excellent moves forward like these glasses. I had watched several video's before finding this one - and then the tears of joy just ran down my face. You are definitely one amazing teacher Mr. McLeod as your pupils testify and I am so glad for you that your students got together to enlighten your world with colour the way you have enlightened their lives through your teaching. Bless you.
Thank you for posting this publicly. Not having known Mr. McLeod, I feel as though so much of him came across in this video! I loved the joke he pulled on everyone else!!!
This made my day! Congratulations to all those wonderful students and to Mr McLeod who I don't know (obviously) but who inspired me today to push myself a little further in being humble and nurturing to my friends. Great inspiration you all are! Greetings from Spain.
This is absolutely beautiful god bless all these wonderful people who just changed this man's life and the tributes to this teacher. I was just at a loss for words.
this was absolutely beautiful. God has blessed you with such wonderful reflections of Christ's love. I prayed when I saw this, and thanked God not only for the people in your life that did this for you but also for the person you must be that they felt compelled to do so. I hope you are enjoying God's vibrant canvas my friend.
I know this video was posted a while ago, but I have watched a number of these types of videos and I don’t think I have ever been touched more than by this one. What a beautiful way to honor a seemingly wonderful man and what a lovely display of community and love. God bless you all.
This is science not fucking Jesus you moron. Science doing what you thought only Jesus could do. Jesus is fantasy. Welcome to reality. Thanks Science!!
This man have two big love attention in same day, the colors but the most important (i think) is the loves of his students. That's great guys. Respect, from France.
His reaction to receiving the glasses, one of utter humility, surprised delight, and gratitude, indicates that everything he has given to others has been its own reward, and that he never expected anything more. I would have loved to have a teacher like this.
Mr. McLeod, I don't know you but you seem like a wonderful man. Congrats on being able to see the colors you previously hadn't been able to see! And Thank you for obviously being an unforgettable teacher to so many. Lastly, Thank You for enriching these kids life with God.
I've been obsessed with watching the Enchroma videos posted lately... but this video had me in tears from start to finish, and I don't even know the man personally. I DO know that he's clearly touched so many lives in so many good ways, but bringing youth to better understand their walk with Christ through uplifting devotions touched me the most. He is clearly a special and deserving man. :) Thanks for sharing this video.
Adam Cunningham I never said "just teachers." Try not to make up words out of thin air that someone didn't say...Plus this is a video about a teacher. I felt no reason to include other professions even though I feel others do need to be appreciated more. I like to stay on topic of the video that I'm watchin.
*I* and *Adam Cunningham* I would imagine because they're an American, and it would be outside of their normal experience to know how teachers are treated in other countries. Here, they're not valued as highly as they should be, the profession doesn't have half the respect that it should, and they're paid a pittance of their worth. Maybe (probably) teachers are underappreciated everywhere, maybe not. What's wrong with someone sticking to speaking about what they know?
This is one of my all-time favorite RUclips videos, I don't even know how many times I've watched it in full. I love Enchroma videos and this one is just beautiful and really well produced and edited too. Very uplifting on the dark days. Thank you for sharing it with us all.
He’s the equivalent to my favorite teacher, Mrs. Denise McGuire-Johnson (MJ). She inspired me to be better. She showed a love & concern for me that I can’t quite put into words. Mr. McLeod, you are the M.J. to all of those students whose lives you inexplicably touched. God Bless you as you start to see God’s beautiful world in all of it’s amazing colors!!!
What a beautiful way to honor a beautiful person! A blessing not just from his family, friends, students, teachers, staff, etc but from the good Lord as well. Clearly God has blessed each person fortunate enough to meet him, by bringing him in their lives as well. Thanks for sharing.
I have been catching tbese videos with the EnChrome?? glasses and i cry but I weaped tears of JOY after seeing how blessed this man is and he blessed them all so abundantly they returned his love full force!!! AMAZING!! By the way, I woke my hubby crying and laughing!! Congrats sir!! I can tell you deseve ever honor offered by this group... Your FAMILY!!!
This video is truely Beautiful. It's so nice to see a teacher that's touched so many lives, and those lives touched are blessing him right back. So amazing to see !! This video made me cry ❤
If all teachers were like him, school would be exciting and more students wouldn't drop out. This man did NOT miss his calling and is truly blessed. May he have a long and happy teaching career. He certainly deserves it!
That was one of the best things I've seen in a long long time, God bless that teacher and God bless all his students family and friends a true treasure to have witnessed such a wonderful wonderful display of love and affection❤
You know, when I really think about it, most people take being able to see color for granted. Seeing this really reminds me of how much of a gift that ability is, and what joy it can bring.
The more often we see the things around us - even the beautiful and wonderful things - the more they become invisible to us. That is why we often take for granted the beauty of this world: the flowers, the trees, the birds, the clouds - even those we love. Because we see things so often, we see them less and less. Joseph B. Wirthlin
Exceptionally good teachers have such an impact on people's lives - they truly deserve the recognition and love of their pupils, and the gratitude of the society that benefits from the education and inspiration they can impart on each new generation. This was a really nice video.
Oh my goodness. I always love stories showcasing giving back&love to deserving teachers, and I love watching enchroma glasses reaction videos. This video is the home run to all the reaction videos for me. How did I not see this before. Plus this teacher resembles and acts a bit like a cousin of mine, so it had me even more emotional than normal, I was emotional x3 ToT!! God bless him, and everyone in this video!! Beautiful video. Beautiful people!
It's really awesome to see a teacher that is loved by his students and very appreciative of the knowledge and kindness given to them. The world needs more educators like him!
He handled that so well. From the videos I've seen, the moment these glasses go on it's such a personal experience. And to do that in front of so many people and maintain composure.. amazing
Teachers are so under paid, this is the very proof. When they make impacts like this on the children, it takes a special someone. From someone who is also colorblind, you have just blessed him immensely. Great job with the gift.
I remember it like it was yesterday; more than 25 years ago, my favourite teacher, everyone's favourite teacher; Mr Tregoning, left to become the deputy head at another school. He was just one teacher out of about 20 at the school, but such was the grief of the students that classes were cancelled for the day and everyone, and I mean everyone, cried their eyes out. There were kids lying on the floor, beating the ground in anguish, some kids cried themselves sick, others walked the corridors like zombies, sobbing and choking on tears. Some kids even threatened suicide, and they had to bring in councillors for a couple of weeks after. It's incredible what affection one can feel for a really great teacher.
Absolutely amazing. Teacher's like this should be recognised and Im so pleased that Mr McLeod got to have his day because clearly, he's touched many lives, hearts and is respected by many. A really moving tribute to celebrate a gentleman who clearly loves his job and his students 👏
I don't know mister Mcleod , but obly looking his eyes, i see the kind of man he's .. True hero of our century , every people deserves to meet a teacher like that in his life .. congrats and thanks
I have seen this video about six times now and it is still the best tribute to a deserving teacher, man, father and human being I have ever seen. Every person should have a Mr McLeod in their life!
So touching! You are truly love and respected. I wish my son had a science teacher like you. Continue to enjoy this world in its beautiful colors. God bless you Mr. McLeod!
Bless the teachers who actually CARE about their students, who become their children too. I treasure the ones I had who changed my life for the better, simply by caring. Bless your new found sight, and expansion of the world you have taught so much about to others, simply by being you so it seems. :) Congrats.
Wolf, I trust you noticed that my heart has been touched in return. My heart is not a limitless tank. I need filling like everyone does. My students have offered lots of strength.
Ill never forget my high school physics teacher Mr McDuff. His outrageous passion for science was contagious. He would go on tangents from what we were learning and have the entire class just enthralled in what he spoke about. Lovely guy. Hope he's ok.
Omgoodness!! This has to be one of the best. He is so humble. You can tell he is a giver. I can't stop crying. Thank you Lord for blessing thi man and the school.
@jim mcleod My regards from Rome, Italy. You just confirmed to me that teaching the way you do is, without doubt, one of my life goals. I'm a visual artist and i teach art in my own private studio and i can't even think to my life without all the colours i see everyday. I can only imagine the joy you felt. Rock on. Bye!
what a fantastic video to stumble upon! Mr. McLeod, I don't know you, but I'm glad you exist. The impact you've had on your students is evident. Thank you for making the world better, one student at a time.... now in Technicolor :-)

Hi Firemedic. I promise that I pull my pants on one leg at a time. Based on your handle... Thank you for your service.
Yeah...but, he's a teacher though.

Your English teacher should have been fired. Far too many commas.
I wish I knew him too!
This is someone who's succeeded as a teacher.
but he says stuff about "god", he is a horrible teacher
/sarcasm
god bullshit has nothing to do with this you dumb fuck.
You fail at sarcasm
someone is triggered
apple do you even know what sarcasm is
what does "triggered" mean?
Once in a while you stumble across a teacher, who still knows what teaching is about.
I had many teachers in the course of my life...some were not teachers by profession..they were teachers of life.
Amen!!!!!
It happens all of the time

Mr. McLeod, I don't know you but you seem like a wonderful man. Congrats on being able to see the colors you previously hadn't been able to see! And Thank you for obviously being an unforgettable teacher to so many. Lastly, Thank You for enriching these kids life with God.
I've been obsessed with watching the Enchroma videos posted lately... but this video had me in tears from start to finish, and I don't even know the man personally. I DO know that he's clearly touched so many lives in so many good ways, but bringing youth to better understand their walk with Christ through uplifting devotions touched me the most. He is clearly a special and deserving man. :) Thanks for sharing this video.
Wow watching this made me tear up. The world definitely needs more awesome Teachers like Mr. McLeod.
Teachers of America deserve a lot more praise and appreciation. They teach the future leaders.
GuyThatCommentsVids why just teachers of America might I ask?
Adam Cunningham I never said "just teachers." Try not to make up words out of thin air that someone didn't say...Plus this is a video about a teacher. I felt no reason to include other professions even though I feel others do need to be appreciated more. I like to stay on topic of the video that I'm watchin.

Adam maybe wanted to say: Why teachers of just America? ;)
*I* and *Adam Cunningham* I would imagine because they're an American, and it would be outside of their normal experience to know how teachers are treated in other countries. Here, they're not valued as highly as they should be, the profession doesn't have half the respect that it should, and they're paid a pittance of their worth.
Maybe (probably) teachers are underappreciated everywhere, maybe not. What's wrong with someone sticking to speaking about what they know?
This is one of my all-time favorite RUclips videos, I don't even know how many times I've watched it in full. I love Enchroma videos and this one is just beautiful and really well produced and edited too. Very uplifting on the dark days. Thank you for sharing it with us all.
Thank you for the kind words. And thank you for staying until the 9th minute when the glasses are actually presented.
He’s the equivalent to my favorite teacher, Mrs. Denise McGuire-Johnson (MJ). She inspired me to be better. She showed a love & concern for me that I can’t quite put into words. Mr. McLeod, you are the M.J. to all of those students whose lives you inexplicably touched. God Bless you as you start to see God’s beautiful world in all of it’s amazing colors!!!
What a beautiful way to honor a beautiful person! A blessing not just from his family, friends, students, teachers, staff, etc but from the good Lord as well. Clearly God has blessed each person fortunate enough to meet him, by bringing him in their lives as well. Thanks for sharing.
This is a beautiful tribute! We need more teachers like Mr. McLeod!
This is absolutely beautiful in every way; Mr. McLeod is truly blessed and has clearly touched many lives. We need more of this in the world!
Sounds like a well deserving teacher. Great job on giving him his colors. There are a lot of people that care about you. Best of luck.
I have been catching tbese videos with the EnChrome?? glasses and i cry but I weaped tears of JOY after seeing how blessed this man is and he blessed them all so abundantly they returned his love full force!!! AMAZING!! By the way, I woke my hubby crying and laughing!! Congrats sir!! I can tell you deseve ever honor offered by this group... Your FAMILY!!!
A lot of love in that room.
Good men do great things, great men do God's work!
This video is truely Beautiful. It's so nice to see a teacher that's touched so many lives, and those lives touched are blessing him right back. So amazing to see !! This video made me cry ❤
I was blessed too have 2 teachers like Mr. MacLeod...oddly they were both named Mrs. Brown....they changed my life in so many ways, God bless them all
If all teachers were like him, school would be exciting and more students wouldn't drop out. This man did NOT miss his calling and is truly blessed. May he have a long and happy teaching career. He certainly deserves it!
J Walker, maybe I should show your comment to the boy who fell asleep in my class last week.
Love honoring teachers that leaves a mark on students! Grateful to see this , thanks!
Wow. What an incredible man to make such an impact like that. No matter how old they get, they will NEVER forget him .
He is a very gracious man. I'm so happy he got the glasses. To get such a wonderful tribute speaks volumes about the man.
That was one of the best things I've seen in a long long time, God bless that teacher and God bless all his students family and friends a true treasure to have witnessed such a wonderful wonderful display of love and affection❤
You know, when I really think about it, most people take being able to see color for granted.
Seeing this really reminds me of how much of a gift that ability is, and what joy it can bring.
The more often we see the things around us - even the beautiful and wonderful things - the more they become invisible to us. That is why we often take for granted the beauty of this world: the flowers, the trees, the birds, the clouds - even those we love. Because we see things so often, we see them less and less.

Man what a tribute!!! Makes me wish I had the opportunity of being in one of his classes. Teachers like him are rare and special
This is a beautiful video. He seems like a true blessing to his students.
These videos make me cry. It is so simple and pure and joyful. This guy obviously deserves the love he received here ❤ how wonderful
The testimonials alone... must really have shown him that he picked the right thing to do with his life. How immensly gratifiying that must feel.
There is nothing better than giving something in return to a wonderful teacher.
I cried like a baby through the whole thing ... what a blessing!
This man is exactly what the meaning of the word TEACHER is... yes the world needs soooo many more Mr McLeod's...
A truly colorful and touching tribute. Congrats! May it rains skittles from a rainbow upon you. God's gift.
Exceptionally good teachers have such an impact on people's lives - they truly deserve the recognition and love of their pupils, and the gratitude of the society that benefits from the education and inspiration they can impart on each new generation. This was a really nice video.
Oh my goodness. I always love stories showcasing giving back&love to deserving teachers, and I love watching enchroma glasses reaction videos. This video is the home run to all the reaction videos for me. How did I not see this before.
Plus this teacher resembles and acts a bit like a cousin of mine, so it had me even more emotional than normal, I was emotional x3 ToT!!
God bless him, and everyone in this video!!
Beautiful video. Beautiful people!
Absolutely beautiful! The great ones deserve recognition. Kudos to you for making his day.
What a wonderful man! I'm so happy for him. Now he'll be able to see al of the beautiful colors that we all take for granted.
It's really awesome to see a teacher that is loved by his students and very appreciative of the knowledge and kindness given to them. The world needs more educators like him!
How sweet!! So awesome! My smile is overflowing thru the tears rolling down my face!
Wow he seems like such an incredibly sweet man with the love of teaching. Wish I had a teacher like him when I was in school! God Bless him
That hit me right in the feels...
Imagine how MINE felt.

@@jimmcleod7286 bless you Mr. McLeod you are truly 1 awesome man ❤❤
My heart skipped a few beats ❣️ How wonderful!
God Bless! A USAF Veteran 🇺🇸
wooow...such a great students and family. made me cry a bit.
He handled that so well. From the videos I've seen, the moment these glasses go on it's such a personal experience. And to do that in front of so many people and maintain composure.. amazing
Teachers are so under paid, this is the very proof. When they make impacts like this on the children, it takes a special someone. From someone who is also colorblind, you have just blessed him immensely. Great job with the gift.
I remember it like it was yesterday; more than 25 years ago, my favourite teacher, everyone's favourite teacher; Mr Tregoning, left to become the deputy head at another school. He was just one teacher out of about 20 at the school, but such was the grief of the students that classes were cancelled for the day and everyone, and I mean everyone, cried their eyes out. There were kids lying on the floor, beating the ground in anguish, some kids cried themselves sick, others walked the corridors like zombies, sobbing and choking on tears. Some kids even threatened suicide, and they had to bring in councillors for a couple of weeks after. It's incredible what affection one can feel for a really great teacher.
I don't know you, but I'm glad you exist. Wow, a life lived right.
Way cool! He is a fantastic teacher for sure. Thanks for sharing. A huge shout out to all those who contributed to a fantastic gift
This is so amazing. I can't imagine having such an impact on people's lives like this.
Awesome....also he looks around very slowly, he actually looks at people and connects.....he seems like a teacher who "sees" you...
Absolutely amazing. Teacher's like this should be recognised and Im so pleased that Mr McLeod got to have his day because clearly, he's touched many lives, hearts and is respected by many.
A really moving tribute to celebrate a gentleman who clearly loves his job and his students 👏
I don't know mister Mcleod , but obly looking his eyes, i see the kind of man he's .. True hero of our century , every people deserves to meet a teacher like that in his life .. congrats and thanks
I was tearing up myself watching this. Wonderful
I have seen this video about six times now and it is still the best tribute to a deserving teacher, man, father and human being I have ever seen. Every person should have a Mr McLeod in their life!
From my perspective. I'd say, "Every teacher should have students like these in their life."
@@jimmcleod7286 I wish I was one of them sir! The building blocks ...
heartwarming!
i hope this goes viral
So touching! You are truly love and respected. I wish my son had a science teacher like you. Continue to enjoy this world in its beautiful colors. God bless you Mr. McLeod!
im a grown ass man why the fuck am i crying??
thanks for this video.
Love this video. I bet I've run across it 5-6 times over the past few years. There is nothing like a great educator.
Aww this is so beautiful!! I can't stop crying..
Aww. Super sweet. I love that he sees his family and immediately hugs them!
Bless the teachers who actually CARE about their students, who become their children too. I treasure the ones I had who changed my life for the better, simply by caring. Bless your new found sight, and expansion of the world you have taught so much about to others, simply by being you so it seems. :) Congrats.
The tribute video brought more tears than seeing colour for the first time! This says a lot about the quality teacher he is.
Awww!! This was so sweet! I was smiling the whole time :)
I tend to smile or get weepy depending on how long it has been since I watched my son's production.

Now THAT'S a teacher!! His heart touched so many and his impact is clearly is endless
Wolf, I trust you noticed that my heart has been touched in return. My heart is not a limitless tank. I need filling like everyone does. My students have offered lots of strength.
@@jimmcleod7286 I wish my teachers were as genuine as you when I was in school.
Damn mannn...i want *HIM* as my teacher!
Ill never forget my high school physics teacher Mr McDuff. His outrageous passion for science was contagious. He would go on tangents from what we were learning and have the entire class just enthralled in what he spoke about. Lovely guy. Hope he's ok.
He is a Christian man. He deserves all the blessings God has to offer.
Omgoodness!! This has to be one of the best. He is so humble. You can tell he is a giver. I can't stop crying. Thank you Lord for blessing thi man and the school.
@jim mcleod
My regards from Rome, Italy.
You just confirmed to me that teaching the way you do is, without doubt, one of my life goals.
I'm a visual artist and i teach art in my own private studio and i can't even think to my life without all the colours i see everyday.
I can only imagine the joy you felt.
Rock on.
Bye!
what a fantastic video to stumble upon! Mr. McLeod, I don't know you, but I'm glad you exist. The impact you've had on your students is evident. Thank you for making the world better, one student at a time.... now in Technicolor :-)
