Calligraphy

The students at school do calligraphy classes and I always see them come out with these beautifully written Chinese characters on thick paper. One of my students gave me this, which she had done in her class, as a Christmas present. She told me that is says, "you are a good teacher." I asked a Chinese friend to translate and she said that it says I am a respected older man! Whatever it says, it is really sweet and thoughtful and I felt really touched.
