    To a very special HotForWords teacher, Marina,
    These heartfelt words of this special card mean so very much to me. You have provided me with many hours of pleasurable learning of new words, ideas and word origins. I feel that this little token of appreciation does not even come close to the amount of joy you have brought to me and I want to let you know that I appreciate every little detail and passionate heartfelt work that you put into this site and your lessons.

    Thank you kindly from the bottom of my ♥ heart.

    Happy Teachers' Day, Marina. Take the day off and have a rest - You deserve it.
    Class - While Teach is away, lets wash the windows, clean the blackboard, poke the chalk dust out of all the corners around the front of the room and remove all the dried up chewing gum from under the desks.
    Anyone who doesn't join in will be given the task of cutting the grass on the sports field - the mower is broken so they'll have to use the pair of scissors in teacher's desk.

    Dear Marina,
    Happy Teacher's Day to you! I'm very happy you chose to do this as your job and I wish you much success in the future. The Intenet will change and become different, ad I hope you will use the new technology to show us even more of yourself.
    Congratulations from Seesixcm6

    What can I say...
    Marina is sure better than my crazy English teacher...

    Today, even with YouTube undergoing constant change and promoting obscurity, Marina is still on top!

    The future has not yet been written for this determined philologist. She's out to change the world, and as far as I'm concerned, she succeeded. Sounds crazy right? But some of you might know what I mean... The world is no more than our very own perception of it, and if that perception changes and you view the world through a prism of superior understanding and with enhanced culture, than I'd say that your world has been altered. And that's something to be grateful for.
    But that's not all she does, besides teaching she also has a great talent to entertain and uninhibit people, regardless of age or sex.

    Keep doing what you love, simply because... we love it too!
    Happy Teacher's Day!

    Keep it gangsta`

    To Marina,
    I wanted to thank you for the wonderful lessons that you have produced. All of the video lessons are very memorable and each one of them has it's own special character and special quality and I can sense that you have worked very hard and passionately at bringing the lessons to us. I love your style, charm, playfulness and sense of humor, all of which is very endearing.

    All of your 434+ videos are magical, and here are some of the videos that have touched me in a special way.

     
    Penny and Dime

    This is a very charming video with you being very close up and personal.
    You did pronounce the word "pfennig" correctly. I had no idea about the origin for penny and loved the ending of the video.

     
    Capricious

    This was a fun lesson. Since I never studied Latin, but studied French and Spanish in school, I always liked the word origin lessons that refer to Latin roots. It was interesting to hear that the word capricious is one of the top twenty words used in exams to get into graduate school. I love how you express yourself in a very delightful manner and your delivery of the information flows beautifully.

     
    Antidisestablishmentarianism

    I liked the casualness of this video and I love the word and how you presented it's meaning. As you said in the video, a lot of us know the word because of its length, but had no idea what it really meant. Very charming lesson.

     
    para - Let’s Get Parallel

    This lesson gave me that a-ha moment, when I learned about the two different roots for 'para' and the idea of loan words. It is these fine distinctions that has given me some greater insights into understanding other words. The lesson on "stupdendous" conveyed those similar concepts.

    Thank you Marina for these wonderful lessons.
    You are the most wonderful teacher I have ever known.

    Dear Marina,

    I haven't mastered much(yet)in the way of computer skills, nor do I possess the talent to "talk purty" like some of The Family. But I want to tell you, without going into detail, that you have truly been a blessing in my life. Beyond the fun, the educational aspect, and the sexy/flirty stuff(all of which I enjoy immensely, obviously).
    Witnessing HotForWords grow has been amazing.
    Seeing you grow within the context of HotForWords has been a priviledge.
    Marina, you are the coolest, sweetest, kindest person I've never met.
    Thank you, Dear Teach, for your creative genius, and for all the time and effort you put into this. It never goes unnoticed.

    With respect, appreciation, and love.
    Always.

    Marina is a great teacher & she's also funny! When I subbed two months ago she did her "Grammy" lesson and she had a "Monty Python Foot" step on her! Now let me borrow a famous quote by a Marvel superhero, who has a new movie out BTW, and apply it here: Marina is the best at what she does!

    Teacher appreciation week? How come I never heard of this? I'm even a teacher by profession. I must have been born in a cave.
    Well Marina, I which you a very happy belated teacher appreciation day. You have really changed my view of words. I'm even now seeing the matrix effect of some words. I'm playing with the word 'Theater'. It's just amazing. My writings have improved according to my sister. I still have a long way to go.

    Thanks Marina....

  18. "T" is for the truth we need so badly
    "E" is everything we learn
    "A" is for the answers that you give us
    "C" is for the comments that we leave
    "H" is for...hell, I don't know...!
    "E" is for each new lesson
    "R" is for the recess between classes
    Put them all together, it spells T-E-A-C-H-E-R
    Marina is the hottest of them all.
