I know that very few people will read this, especially since Mme Nacuta retired many years ago. In fact, it has been many years since I've had her class. I wrote a review on the original Rate My Teachers, but that has since been deleted. I've been meaning to write another review, so I guess the time has come. I was one of the few students who had Mme Nacuta as my teacher for 3 years: grades 4-6. It was not the easiest class to say the least. There were ups and downs. There was certainly a large amount of memorization involved and you had to put the work in to get a good grade. However, your hard work is certainly rewarded. You would see the 4+ on many tests and projects if you put the work in. She was certainly intimidating and downright terrifying, but I did learn a lot from my time with her. It was not always the most enjoyable experience, but it was one that I will value for the rest of my academic career, at least as a student.

That being said, thanks Mme Nacuta. I really learned a lot from your classes and you helped me to develop good work habits that are imperative to have, especially in elementary school and beyond. I'm still bitter that I couldn't give you a proper goodbye, but I thank you again for all your hard work.
