Yes, yes, yes

There is nothing quite like the feeling of having one of your students do really well, but that moment when they (or their parents, frequently) say "thanks" is as close as it can get.

If a student does well, the teacher should say so.
If the teacher does a great job, the student should say so.
That way everyone can be rewarded
