Teacher– barbara colvec And heather brown –gave an interview recently cbs philadelphia About the pop superstar’s love for poetry at a very young age.
Colweck, a retired music teacher, said Taylor was always writing poems in her first through fourth grade classes at Windcraft School in Pottstown, PA.
Interestingly, Colvack says he gave Taylor his first solo vocal – a song called “Fast Talk Freddy”, while also claiming that the two kept in touch for some time. Over the years, Taylor gifted Colvac a signed T-shirt, a stuffed snowman and other souvenirs.
“I feel like maybe I gave her a little spark or encouragement to do what she was doing,” Kolwek said.
Meanwhile, Brown told CBS that she was Taylor’s third-grade teacher who saw a “special quality” in the 14-time Grammy Award winner.
Brown said that Taylor’s greatest quality as a child was that whatever she was doing at Windcraft was attracting her fellow students.
The teacher further explained that she gets extremely excited whenever she sees Taylor on stage, knowing that “I was her teacher.”
To this day, Brown still sends Taylor a Christmas card every year, but admits that “she probably doesn’t get the messages anymore.”
