Educators: What’s the cutest thing you’ve been called by a student? I’ve been called “Mommy” in many different languages. I had one student call me “sweet baby” because he said his mom called him “sweet baby” and “that’s what you call someone you love”. #TeacherLife

Okay, this thread is officially making my day right now. Thank you to everyone who has contributed. I’m loving it!

When I worked in daycare, the kids called me by my first name. One little girl in the Toddler program called me “Timmy O” because she was still learning how to make a “k” sound. It was adorable, and informally introduced me to substitutions and omissions in speech production.
