Hey, can you guys help me figure out the best format to use when writing thank-you letters to my teachers? (to put in Christmas cards) Do I use a basic "Thank you for......." or is there another format that would be better? Possibly I just need to write them, no format? Thank you for any help!

I always use literary quotes for that, and maybe just adapt them a little bit or not. 

Some examples:

“A teacher affects eternity; he can never tell where his influence stops.” 
― Henry Adams

“I am not a teacher, but an awakener.” 
― Robert Frost
(You can change this one to 'You are not a teacgher, but....')

“There are two kinds of teachers: the kind that fill you with so much quail shot that you can't move, and the kind that just gives you a little prod behind and you jump to the skies.” 
― Robert Frost
