Everyone sat up expectantly. It was

Everyone sat up expectantly. It was a maths period and all of us waited eagerly for our maths teacher, Mrs Huang, to come into the class. She is very popular among us. In fact, she is my favorite teacher.

Mrs Huang has short curly hair and wears thick glasses, which makes her look stern. However, she is actually very approachable and is always ready to lend an ear to our problems. She is motherly and cares very much for us. I remember once when I fell and hurt my knee. Mrs Huang helped me to stop the bleeding and took me to the clinic. I was very grateful to her.

I used to dislike maths when I was younger because I found it far too complicated. Mrs Huang always makes maths lessons interesting and easy to understand. She is very patient in explaining maths problems to us and always makes sure everyone understands. Under her guidance, my maths has improved by leaps and bounds.

I have grown to love maths and I always score high marks in my maths tests now. It is all because of my favorite teacher.







Miss Wilde is our teacher of English this term. She has been teaching in our school for three years ever since her return from London, but I have never attended her classes before.She is rather tall for a lady, about twenty-four years of age, and I find her really slender. She puts on a little make up in very discreet manner. Though young and attractive in appearance, she is dignified and reserved. She is some what strict at times, but never too severe or stern. Her patience is wonderful she will never give up explaining until every one of us understands.Her method of teaching differs somewhat from that of our former teacher. She pays much attention in correcting our pronunciation and drills us in expressing ourselves in short English sentences. At the end of each lesson, she gives us assignments and lets us work out ourselves. Her method means more work for us to do in the evening, as we have to consult the dictionary again and again; but this help us to remember the new words and phrases and we feel that we have been making rapid progress.Though my teacher is sometimes severe, yet her kindness and gentility always commands our respect.




















Narrative Essay – My Favorite Teacher

In high school, my favorite teacher was a large man called Mr Scott. He taught English Literature on the top floor of the science block in an old science lab. He was my favorite teacher for a number of reasons at a school that was well-known for its poor standards of teaching.

He would open every lesson in a disciplined manner by quickly silencing the class and getting on with the work. This was a rarity at my school because pupils would typically waste the first ten minutes. Mr Scott had a no tolerance rule in place and would purposely refuse to let any latecomers in until he’d assigned some work to us.

It wasn’t just the fact Mr Scott was different from the other teachers that made him my favorite teacher. He would make lessons engaging by encouraging everyone to read whatever text we happened to be reading. He would even do this with the shyer students, who normally had problems reading aloud.

Through his hard work, he managed to bring them out of their shells. He understood the problems many people faced, especially in relation to public speaking. Whilst Mr Scott would never dream of letting us just avoid the task, he wouldn’t try to humiliate anyone either. He had a special touch that enabled us to overcome our challenges, but also knowing where our real limits were.

He was able to get the best out of us. I remember in particular a task where I had to give a short speech on prisons. I was terrible at public speaking and would do practically anything to avoid it. He didn’t let me escape it, even if I managed to delay it for a number of weeks. My speech wasn’t fantastic, but I still managed to get a passing grade for it. And that was because Mr Scott made me go up and do it. He understood where my true limits were.

What truly reinforced my belief that he was my favorite teacher was the way he could teach students with the view to getting the highest grades without us even realising. For example, at the end of every lesson he would play a comical video he found online. It added some light-hearted relief that kept morale high and trouble low.

At the same time, he was never someone who overstepped his professional bounds. After receiving my results for my January exams, he walked past me and simply commented that it was an A+, the highest grade available. He didn’t smile or show any outward signs of joy, but I knew he was delighted deep inside.

Nothing changed after this. As we transitioned to the English language part of the course, he continued what he was doing in the same way. It worked and his class got the highest grades in the history of the school.

After leaving school, he only remained for another year before departing to another school for better pay. Despite this, he’s my favorite teacher and a cut above every other teacher to have entered my life.















My Favorite Teacher

There have been many people who have influenced me and those who have set great examples in my life. Many of those people were teachers that I have had from Kindergarten to the present time. If I had to choose one who has had the greatest influence, it would have to be Mrs. Gullion at Lilburn Elementary School in Lilburn, GA. She put much effort and time in teaching music and leading the fourth and fifth grade choir. There are many reasons why she was my favorite teacher of all times, but there is not enough space to share all of these, so I will share three reasons. First, she had the characteristics of a Christian. Second, she made learning music fun. Finally, she gave her all into teaching us.

One reason why Mrs. Gullion was my favorite teacher is because of her characteristics of being a Christian. She was always kind, thoughtful, and generous. She continually listened to what we had to say. At the end of each class, if time permitted and if there were people who wanted to, we would have a little show and tell time. Being that we were attending a music class, the only things that we could show and tell were things dealing with music. There were quite a few times during my four years at LES that I would play the piano for our class. I would play songs such as The Entertainer, by Scot Joplin, or even songs that we had sung in class that day. She always took the time to listen to our thoughts and was never impatient with us, and for that I am very grateful.

Another reason why Mrs. Gullion was a favorite of mine was because she made learning music fun. It did not matter whether we were in a portable classroom, where space was limited, or in an actual room in the building, where we had plenty of room to move around. She always had ideas to get us moving and enjoying music. I remember that there was a song that we sang that was similar to “This Old Man,” but with longer verses and a chorus in between each verse. She would add hand, arm, or body movements to every verse and chorus in the song. My friends and I would be laughing while we sang the song because the movements were so silly! Mrs. Gullion also made learning music fun by letting us play with different percussion instruments. We played with glockenspiels, xylophones, tambourines, triangles, drums, bongos, and the list could go on. I remember that, at the end of the hour, one day, she showed us a gong and what it sounded like. We thought it was the neatest thing ever. Although we had music once a week and even though it was a blast, the fun and learning did not stop there.

Finally, Mrs. Gullion made music fun and enjoyable by having a fourth and fifth grade choir that we could participate in. I was only able to participate in the choir my fourth grade year, but it was a fun one. For our Christmas musical, she took an “episode” off of Sesame Street, called “This is Your Life,” and did an entire musical. Sesame Street’s “This is Your Life” was hosted by a “TV show host” and one of the Sesame Street characters would be a contestant. The contestant would then have to listen to various voices of significant people in their lives. In our case, we used Santa Claus and the many events that happen as Christmas becomes to children what it is: a time of seeing elves, reindeer, Mrs. Claus, the North Pole, etc. In our musical we even had a commercial break that included dancing candy bars! All in all, Mrs. Gullion was a fun, creative teacher.

Mrs. Gullion was an excellent, fabulous teacher. She has made an impact on my life, and by her doing so, I hope that I can pass the same qualities on to children I will be teaching. She had characteristics of a Christian, she made music fun to learn and enjoy, and finally she made music fun by directing a fourth and fifth grade choir. Thank you Mrs. Gullion, for the impact you have had on my life.

Essay on My Favourite Teacher

In my school there are many teachers. Each one teaches us different subjects. Although all of them are fairly good, there is one teacher whom I love and admire the most. Her name is Ms. Lily. She is the most pleasing personality that I have ever come across. She is an ideal teacher. She has all those qualities which a good teacher is expected to have.

Ms. Lily is a science teacher. She loves the subject that she teaches and has an in-depth knowledge of it too. She teaches science almost as though it were a hobby class. She does not adopt the old methods of teaching. In fact we even forget at times that she is teaching us from our text books.

Science comes alive in Ms. Lily's class. When she teaches, no one talks about anything but the topic that she discusses. She has the ability to draw out attention to the subject and also to sustain it. She conducts various experiments in the class and demonstra
