    An Atlanta elementary school teacher has gone viral after showing off the positive way she gets her students ready for class.

    In a TikTok video, Neffiteria Acker, who teaches fourth graders at Kindezi at Gideons Elementary School took it upon herself to make sure her students knew the importance of self-love.

    Acker makes her students address themselves in the mirror before class ‘to start off their day right.’


    Acker’s video, which has boasted over seven million views, shows the elementary school teacher making her students say positive affirmations in a mirror before they walk into her classroom at the beginning of the school day.

    The students are filmed walking up to the mirror, which has stickers saying “I am,” taped to the sides. They each have to say a positive affirmation about themselves while looking directly into the mirror.

    “I am smart,” one young student chants into the mirror before walking into the class, while another student walks up and says confidently, “I am a good person!”

    Other affirmations said by the students included, “I am awesome. I am strong. I am a good sports player. I am strong and independent.” Acker also makes sure to tell her students to say these affirmations loudly and with conviction.

    Having young children recite positive affirmations has been proven to improve their self-esteem, according to Kindness Ripple Project.

    Positive affirmations are very effective in nurturing emotional well-being in children. Affirming positive messages are like acts of kindness and love towards themselves that build self-esteem and self-belief which can stay with them throughout their life.
