Who's Who of Mountain Brook: Best Teacher

Wanda Burns

Mountain Brook High School Math Teacher

“Ms. Burns is always one of the first ones to arrive at school. She then takes confused, somewhat uninterested and distracted teenage math students and turns them into calculus whizzes. I really don’t know how she does it! I know of several kids who, when they go back to visit the high school after graduation, always stop by her classroom and hope to have just one more conversation with her. She really, honestly cares about each student, both those who are math geniuses and those who struggle terribly through it.” -MBHS Parent
