Taylor Swift’s Former Teachers Remember Her Being Poetic As A Child

Buy Me A Coffee

In the saga of musical marvels, Taylor Swift stands as the beacon of pride, cherished not only by her legion of fans but also by her former educators who witnessed her rise from scribbling poetry in class to owning the stage.

When Swift dropped her eleventh studio album, “The Tortured Poets Department,” it was like a symphony of nostalgia for her early professors. CBS Philadelphia caught up with two of her former mentors, who spilled the beans on Swiftโ€™s musical journey, starting from the days when her guitar was probably bigger than her.

Barbara Kolvek, Swift’s primary school music maestro, spilled the tea, revealing that the Grammy sensation’s musical aspirations began brewing back when she was knee-high to a grasshopper. According to Kolvek, Swift was a lyrical tornado even in second grade, scribbling verses when she should’ve been hitting the xylophone. Kolvek proudly proclaimed herself as the midwife to Swift’s singing ambitions, recalling the fateful day she bestowed upon Taylor her first-ever solo. And oh, what a moment it was! Cue the confetti cannons and glitter bombs.

But Kolvek didnโ€™t just teach Swift music; she became her personal cheerleader, maintaining a lifeline to the budding superstar even after the curtains closed on elementary school. “I like to think I was the match that ignited the inferno of her talent,” Kolvek mused, her eyes sparkling with the pride of a teacher whose student became the soundtrack to millions of lives.

Heather Brown, Swiftโ€™s third-grade mentor, chimed in with her own anecdotes, painting a picture of young Taylor as a magnet for admiration. Brown reminisced about Swift’s “special quality,” a je ne sais quoi that drew folks in like moths to a flame. According to Brown, Taylor wasnโ€™t just a student; she was a force of nature wrapped in pigtails and innocence.

And despite the chasm of years between them, Brown still keeps the flame of their connection alive, sending Christmas cards to Swift every year, even if they vanish into the abyss of celebrity fan mail. “It’s the thought that counts, right?” Brown chuckled, a twinkle in her eye betraying her undying affection for her former pupil.

As for Swift’s future endeavors, both educators are on the edge of their seats, eagerly anticipating the next chapter in her glittering saga. “Everything she touches turns to gold,” Kolvek exclaimed, her voice trembling with excitement. “I wouldnโ€™t be surprised if she accidentally turns her morning cereal into a platinum-selling album!”

And when Swift takes the stage, bathed in the adoration of millions, Brown can’t help but feel a surge of pride. “To think, I once taught that whirlwind of talent,” she mused, shaking her head in disbelief. “Who knew my lesson plans would birth a pop culture phenomenon?”
