To the teacher i'll never forget, your teaching was a work of heart..

To The Teacher I'll Never Forget

Hi, remember me?

I used to sit in the back of your class in the corner, hiding behind others because quite frankly you were always so intimidating. You were quiet, but stern. I was terrified to be called on because I was afraid of answering your extremely thought-provoking questions. I was afraid I wasn't good enough for your class. Admittedly, I was a huge slacker when it came to Honors English. I would procrastinate on huge assignments and stay up hours upon hours to try to complete them because I knew you were a tough grader. Truthfully, I dreaded this class and got stomach pains each time I entered because this was the hardest class I ever took. I always felt so stupid when other kids in the class would give these brilliant answers to your questions and pull some underlying theme from something I considered to be insignificant. I stopped trying. I began to give up and my grades reflected it. I didn't understand why I had such a hard time because I always loved Language Arts.

I wanted to be that student that had all of the answers, but I wasn't. It was rare if I read the book we were reading in class, something I am not proud to admit. I was disappointed in myself and I felt like I never stood out to you. The same kids always answered everything. I think that was another reason why I began to not care. I always felt like such a disappointment. But then we started our poetry section. Something I truly loved. I felt like I was beginning to get myself back, the old me that really tried and always succeeded. I worked so hard on my poetry collection. When I handed it in, you smiled at me and told me my work looked wonderful. That was one of my proudest moments in that class. When you handed my work back to me, I was nervous of the possibility of red pen squiggles across my masterpiece. But I was pleasantly surprised so find sticky notes all through my folder. Sticky notes of compliments. I waited until I got on the bus to read them, tears rolling down my face. I realized at that moment you had noticed me all along. I wasn't just another student. You had believed in me the whole time, even when I didn't. You even had me submit my work in the school literary magazine because you thought it was excellent.

I wish I had appreciated your class more and tried harder. You taught me so many valuable lessons about being human. Making mistakes and overcoming hardships. I ended up signing up for your class again my senior year and loved every minute of it. Honors English will always be my favorite class. And you will always be the teacher I will never forget. Because of you, I decided I was worthy. You inspired me to become a teacher and to never give up on my students, no matter how hard it may be. I wish I could tell you how much I appreciate all of your lessons. And how the world just isn't the same without you here. When I found out you were sick, I never imagined you would pass. You were you...we all believed you were invincible. I feel sorry for the students that will never have you. The ones who will never experience a "Mrs. Pears' Moment" or get to go to your house for a movie night. They won't experience memorizing all of Hamlet's speech, being abandoned for a day for the "Lord of the Flies" experience, or the magic you believed in with carpe diem. There will never be another teacher quite like you. I wish you knew how thankful I am for you. You believing in me was the greatest thing you could have ever done for me. I miss you.

25 beatles lyrics: your go-to guide for every situation, the best lines from the fab four.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The End- Abbey Road, 1969

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Dear Prudence- The White Album, 1968

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

Because- Abbey Road, 1969

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

All You Need Is Love, 1967

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

We Can Work It Out- Rubber Soul, 1965

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Come Together- Abbey Road, 1969

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

I Wanna Hold Your Hand- Meet The Beatles!, 1964

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band-1967

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Strawberry Fields Forever- Magical Mystery Tour, 1967

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Rain- Paperback Writer "B" side, 1966

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

Here Comes The Sun- Abbey Road, 1969

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

Saw Her Standing There- Please Please Me, 1963

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

Michelle- Rubber Soul, 1965

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

Revolution- The Beatles, 1968

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Eleanor Rigby- Revolver, 1966

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

With A Little Help From My Friends- Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, 1967

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

In My Life- Rubber Soul, 1965

While these are my 25 favorites, there are quite literally 1000s that could have been included. The Beatles' body of work is massive and there is something for everyone. If you have been living under a rock and haven't discovered the Fab Four, you have to get musically educated. Stream them on Spotify, find them on iTunes or even buy a CD or record (Yes, those still exist!). I would suggest starting with 1, which is a collection of most of their #1 songs, or the 1968 White Album. Give them chance and you'll never look back.

14 Invisible Activities: Unleash Your Inner Ghost!

Obviously the best superpower..

The best superpower ever? Being invisible of course. Imagine just being able to go from seen to unseen on a dime. Who wouldn't want to have the opportunity to be invisible? Superman and Batman have nothing on being invisible with their superhero abilities. Here are some things that you could do while being invisible, because being invisible can benefit your social life too.

1. "Haunt" your friends.

Follow them into their house and cause a ruckus.

2. Sneak into movie theaters.

Going to the cinema alone is good for your mental health , says science

Considering that the monthly cost of subscribing to a media-streaming service like Netflix is oft...

Free movies...what else to I have to say?

3. Sneak into the pantry and grab a snack without judgment.

Late night snacks all you want? Duh.

4. Reenact "Hollow Man" and play Kevin Bacon.

America's favorite son? And feel what it's like to be in a MTV Movie Award nominated film? Sign me up.

5. Wear a mask and pretend to be a floating head.

Just another way to spook your friends in case you wanted to.

6. Hold objects so they'll "float."

"Oh no! A floating jar of peanut butter."

7. Win every game of hide-and-seek.

Just stand out in the open and you'll win.

8. Eat some food as people will watch it disappear.

Even everyday activities can be funny.

9. Go around pantsing your friends.

Even pranks can be done; not everything can be good.

10. Not have perfect attendance.

You'll say here, but they won't see you...

11. Avoid anyone you don't want to see.

Whether it's an ex or someone you hate, just use your invisibility to slip out of the situation.

12. Avoid responsibilities.

Chores? Invisible. People asking about social life? Invisible. Family being rude? Boom, invisible.

13. Be an expert on ding-dong-ditch.

Never get caught and have the adrenaline rush? I'm down.

14. Brag about being invisible.

Be the envy of the town.

But don't, I repeat, don't go in a locker room. Don't be a pervert with your power. No one likes a Peeping Tom.

Good luck, folks.

19 Lessons I'll Never Forget from Growing Up In a Small Town

There have been many lessons learned..

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

1. The importance of traditions.

Sometimes traditions seem like a silly thing, but the fact of it is that it's part of who you are. You grew up this way and, more than likely, so did your parents. It is something that is part of your family history and that is more important than anything.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

No matter how many times they get on your nerves or make you mad, they are the ones who will always be there and you should never take that for granted.

3. How to give back.

When tragedy strikes in a small town, everyone feels obligated to help out because, whether directly or indirectly, it affects you too. It is easy in a bigger city to be able to disconnect from certain problems. But in a small town those problems affect everyone.

4. What the word "community" really means.

Along the same lines as #3, everyone is always ready and willing to lend a helping hand when you need one in a small town and to me that is the true meaning of community. It's working together to build a better atmosphere, being there to raise each other up, build each other up, and pick each other up when someone is in need. A small town community is full of endless support whether it be after a tragedy or at a hometown sports game. Everyone shows up to show their support.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

People say this to others all the time, but it takes on a whole new meaning in a small town. It is true that life is about the journey, but when you're from a small town, you know it's about the journey because the journey probably takes longer than you spend at the destination. Everything is so far away that it is totally normal to spend a couple hours in the car on your way to some form of entertainment. And most of the time, you're gonna have as many, if not more, memories and laughs on the journey than at the destination.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

Word travels fast in a small town, so don't think you're gonna get away with anything. In fact, your parents probably know what you did before you even have a chance to get home and tell them. And forget about being scared of what your teacher, principle, or other authority figure is going to do, you're more afraid of what your parents are gonna do when you get home.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

Everyone deserves a chance. Most people don't have ill-intentions and you can't live your life guarding against every one else just because a few people in your life have betrayed your trust.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

While small towns are not always extremely diverse, they do contain people with a lot of different stories, struggle, and backgrounds. In a small town, it is pretty hard to exclude anyone because of who they are or what they come from because there aren't many people to choose from. A small town teaches you that just because someone isn't the same as you, doesn't mean you can't be great friends.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

In a small town, you learn that it's okay to be who you are and do your own thing. You learn that confidence isn't how beautiful you are or how much money you have, it's who you are on the inside.

10. How to work for what I want.

Nothing comes easy in life. They always say "gardens don't grow overnight" and if you're from a small town you know this both figuratively and literally. You certainly know gardens don't grow overnight because you've worked in a garden or two. But you also know that to get to the place you want to be in life it takes work and effort. It doesn't just happen because you want it to.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

If you're from a small town, you know that you will probably only meet a handful of people in your life who ACTUALLY know where your town is. And forget about the people who accidentally enter into your town because of google maps. You've gotten really good at giving them directions right back to the interstate.

12. How to be humble .

My small town has definitely taught me how to be humble. It isn't always about you, and anyone who grows up in a small town knows that. Everyone gets their moment in the spotlight, and since there's so few of us, we're probably best friends with everyone so we are as excited when they get their moment of fame as we are when we get ours.

13. To be well-rounded.

Going to a small town high school definitely made me well-rounded. There isn't enough kids in the school to fill up all the clubs and sports teams individually so be ready to be a part of them all.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

In a small town, good luck holding a grudge. In a bigger city you can just avoid a person you don't like or who you've had problems with. But not in a small town. You better resolve the issue fast because you're bound to see them at least 5 times a week.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

One of my favorite things about growing up in a rural area was being able to go outside and go exploring and not have to worry about being in danger. There is nothing more exciting then finding a new place somewhere in town or in the woods and just spending time there enjoying the natural beauty around you.

16. To be prepared for anything.

You never know what may happen. If you get a flat tire, you better know how to change it yourself because you never know if you will be able to get ahold of someone else to come fix it. Mechanics might be too busy , or more than likely you won't even have enough cell service to call one.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

It's okay to ask for help. One thing I realized when I moved away from my town for college, was how much my town has taught me that I could ask for help is I needed it. I got into a couple situations outside of my town where I couldn't find anyone to help me and found myself thinking, if I was in my town there would be tons of people ready to help me. And even though I couldn't find anyone to help, you better believe I wasn't afraid to ask.

18. How to be creative.

When you're at least an hour away from normal forms of entertainment such as movie theaters and malls, you learn to get real creative in entertaining yourself. Whether it be a night looking at the stars in the bed of a pickup truck or having a movie marathon in a blanket fort at home, you know how to make your own good time.

19. To brush off gossip.

It's all about knowing the person you are and not letting others influence your opinion of yourself. In small towns, there is plenty of gossip. But as long as you know who you really are, it will always blow over.

Grateful Beyond Words: A Letter to My Inspiration

I have never been so thankful to know you..

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

You have taught me that you don't always have to strong. You are allowed to break down as long as you pick yourself back up and keep moving forward. When life had you at your worst moments, you allowed your friends to be there for you and to help you. You let them in and they helped pick you up. Even in your darkest hour you showed so much strength. I know that you don't believe in yourself as much as you should but you are unbelievably strong and capable of anything you set your mind to.

Your passion to make a difference in the world is unbelievable. You put your heart and soul into your endeavors and surpass any personal goal you could have set. Watching you do what you love and watching you make a difference in the lives of others is an incredible experience. The way your face lights up when you finally realize what you have accomplished is breathtaking and I hope that one day I can have just as much passion you have.

The love you have for your family is outstanding. Watching you interact with loved ones just makes me smile . You are so comfortable and you are yourself. I see the way you smile when you are around family and I wish I could see you smile like this everyday. You love with all your heart and this quality is something I wished I possessed.

You inspire me to be the best version of myself. I look up to you. I feel that more people should strive to have the strength and passion that you exemplify in everyday life.You may be stubborn at points but when you really need help you let others in, which shows strength in itself. I have never been more proud to know someone and to call someone my role model. You have taught me so many things and I want to thank you. Thank you for inspiring me in life. Thank you for making me want to be a better person.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life..

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Don't freak out

This is a rule you should continue to follow no matter what you do in life, but is especially helpful in this situation.

Email the professor

Around this time, professors are getting flooded with requests from students wanting to get into full classes. This doesn't mean you shouldn't burden them with your email; it means they are expecting interested students to email them. Send a short, concise message telling them that you are interested in the class and ask if there would be any chance for you to get in.

Attend the first class

Often, the advice professors will give you when they reply to your email is to attend the first class. The first class isn't the most important class in terms of what will be taught. However, attending the first class means you are serious about taking the course and aren't going to give up on it.

Keep attending class

Every student is in the same position as you are. They registered for more classes than they want to take and are "shopping." For the first couple of weeks, you can drop or add classes as you please, which means that classes that were once full will have spaces. If you keep attending class and keep up with assignments, odds are that you will have priority. Professors give preference to people who need the class for a major and then from higher to lower class year (senior to freshman).

Have a backup plan

For two weeks, or until I find out whether I get into my waitlisted class, I will be attending more than the usual number of classes. This is so that if I don't get into my waitlisted class, I won't have a credit shortage and I won't have to fall back in my backup class. Chances are that enough people will drop the class, especially if it is very difficult like computer science, and you will have a chance. In popular classes like art and psychology, odds are you probably won't get in, so prepare for that.

Remember that everything works out at the end

Life is full of surprises. So what if you didn't get into the class you wanted? Your life obviously has something else in store for you. It's your job to make sure you make the best out of what you have.

A teacher I will never forget

Profile image of Larry Orozco

2018, essay

The influence of a good teacher can never be erased, and it is because good teachers always leave a mark in our life. This is the case of my English professor from high school, she was the kind of professor who will never be satisfy at least that all her students got the knowledge, she was very dedicated to her job, also she was very friendly, there was no one with whom she had no friendship, but apart from being so kind, she deserved everyone's respect and admiration. The dedication to her job was very noticeable, she almost never failed one class at least she were sick, but if not she would never miss it. She was not only punctual but also she loved teaching, I could see how much she enjoy it, she always prepared nice activities, and the surprise that could never be missing was a quiz, she used to say (take a piece of paper and write down your name on it), and that was everything, we knew that it was true so we had to study every day, because we never knew when we would have a quiz. She explained very well, and she gave clear explanations so there was no excuse, of course her methodology worked very well because she made us to study in order to not be surprised by a quiz. With the past of the time we do not remember what a professor teaches, what we remember is how He or She is. My English professor was very kind, she was lovely and very friendly, all of us we were glad to see her every day, because she made us to smile with her personality and the way she addressed to us. She was very funny, of course she was very respectful when making jokes, and she never hurt our feelings because she knew that we loved her. On the other hand she was like a very close friend, we could trust on her our problems due to she gave us confidence, and the most important she did not have preferences, all her students had the same value, nobody was more important than other, and I consider it was something very special from her. There is a big difference between being strict and respectable, we respected her class, no body made noisy on her class, even nobody got distracted during her classes, and because of the way she taught made the class to be serious and entertaining, everything was centered on the topic of the class. She was not rude, she did not need to be like that to keep the control on her students. I steal remember the first time I saw her, I thought she was the kind of person who does not like to make friends because of the way she looked but after receiving the first class with her, I realized that it was the opposite, she was a very nice teacher, someone inspiring. But before I finish I want you to know who is the teacher I have been talking about, her name is Martha Yadira Vallejo, she studied English at the same university as I do, and actually she teaches English in El Jicaral. I think she was the one who sowed in me the desire to learn English and for that reason and for many others I will never forget her.

A B S T R A C T Little empirical research has been done about teacher–student relationships and the emotions involved from the students' perspective. Our research employs narrative approach and addresses such memories of teachers that former students described as having very positive, even life-changing significance for them. We ask what do positive memories of teachers tell us about teacher–student relationships and the emotions involved. The findings illustrate how teachers establish emotional bonds with their students as well as their sensitivity towards the students' life-circumstances and emotions. In addition, teachers' socio-emotional involvement in students' lives is reflected in students' emotions. For teacher education, we argue the need to implement the understanding of the meaning of emotions in teacher–student relationships.

The Teacher as a Person

Olufemi O . Ajayi

The Teacher as a Person Teachers' Colleges, or Colleges of Education, which is a better term, will do two things: (a) They will continue the student's personal education and help him to become a good person. (b) They will introduce him to the difficult art of teaching, its theory and its practice. Some people think teachers' colleges should produce fully trained teachers at the end of the course. This is not what colleges do, or claim to do. They lay foundations upon which the young teacher can build. It is during the next five or ten years of teaching that he will complete for himself what the college began to do for him. Only in school (his work place) can he get the experience that counts. But, experience is of no use if we are too proud to learn by it. There are millions of people in the world who have had lots of experience-but they are no wiser. So, let us remember that the amount of experience we have had is of less importance than our ability to profit by it. The best teachers are those who have the humility and capacity to learn by success and failure. Humility is the capacity to accept the criticism of others and to criticize ourselves without feeling too sorry for ourselves. It should now be obvious to 'student teachers in training' that a large part of their future success depends on themselves, on their knowledge, on their attitude to learning their job, on their capacity to learn by their own experience, and on the conduct of their personal lives. But none of these good things is enough in itself to make a good teacher: Knowledge is not enough if we do not know how to pass it on to our students. Training is not enough if we have no knowledge to pass on. Experience is not enough unless we learn by it. Good character has to be supported by knowledge and skill in the classroom. What sort of person a teacher ought to be? 1. A teacher should be a person of good character-a man or woman who respects truth, who is sincere in word and act, who likes people and especially children, and whose personal life sets a good example to his pupils. He should have a sense of humour; which means that he can laugh at himself and that the children will laugh with him. These qualities of character are the solid foundation of the good teacher's work. Parents will feel that their children are safe in the care of such a person. 2. The good teacher will remain a student all his life-Only in this way can he become an educated person, which is what every teacher should wish to be. Teaching fails when we cease to learn, no matter how old we are. What we have learned at school and college is only the beginning of knowledge. The School Certificate is a beginning; the Teacher's Certificate is another beginning. If we have a university degree, this too is the beginning, not the end, of the journey. For these are only stages on the pathway to knowledge and wisdom. The test of the truly educated person is that he knows that he does not know all he ought to know. The mind of the

Moreover, this type of teacher will also be far from being injustice, antipathy, irresponsible, authoritarian, and short-tempered. Some pedagogical implications areimplicitly discussed. &nbsp

Introduction:

Teachers are the ones who play a very vital role in shaping our future. From the Pre-Kinder Garden to your Post-Doctoral fellowships, they teach, impart knowledge, share ethical values, and imbibe morality, thereby shaping our personality as a strong one.

My Teacher:

Throughout our lives, we will be having many kith and kins who will hold a special place in our hearts. For me, one such person is my teacher. All of us, for sure, will definitely agree to the fact that the kinship between us and our kinder garden teachers could not be well-defined. I like my nursery teacher, so much. There is something very magical about her. Maybe, she was the first teacher in my life or maybe, she was very sweet in talking to all of us, I am unable to portray why she is always my favourite. I relied on her blindly.

Unforgettable Memories:

I have some cherished memories with my teacher. Whenever I think of those memories, it makes me blissful. On the last day of my nursery school, I started crying at the very thought of leaving her and having a new teacher. I had fallen sick due to crying for hours together. I skipped my food. My parents were not able to do anything. They called for her to make me feel better. My teacher travelled a few miles across the city and reached the hospital. She, then, said that she would never forget any of her students and asked me to write to her. I started writing to her every week from then on and she replied to every letter of mine. Till date, I look at my teacher as my second mother and she guides me in all my difficult situations.

Conclusion:

Having a good teacher who can share an amalgamated relationship with the students is a boon. A good teacher should be a good mentor, a philosopher, a guide, a friend and above all a surrogate parent to the children. I am lucky that I had gotten one in my lifetime.

My favorite subject is English and my most favorite teacher is Chitra Ma’am. She teaches us English. She likes me a lot and appreciates my hard work. She joined our school one year ago. Before that, I was not so good at English. But after attending her classes, we have all become much better at this subject.

I like her for many reasons. First of all, she teaches the lessons in a very interesting way. Even when we have doubts or questions, she never gets upset with us. Her best quality is her loving nature. She would come to school daily without missing a day.

Her dressing sense is nice. She wears simple salwar suits. She always speaks to her students softly and respectfully. I eagerly wait for her class and do my English homework on time. Chitra Ma’am puts a lot of effort in explaining every chapter.

There are many activities given at the end of every lesson and she makes us participate in all of them. Not only that, but she also encourages us to take part in drama and poem competitions. Since her first day, she made a rule for us.

All of us has to speak in English during the English period. Every student tries to talk in English even if the sentence sounds improper. She has taught us to never laugh at each other’s mistakes. This has improved our spoken English in a great way. Now, we are able to talk in English with more confidence.

Another great quality of hers is that she treats every child equally. After explaining the lesson to us, she asks each one of us different questions about the chapter. Sometimes, we also love to talk about our personal lives, like what do we like about our lives, how our parents work hard for us, and things like that.

When we get confused or need an emotional support, she is the best person to talk to. Her advice and suggestions are always positive. Last month, on teacher’s day, all the students wished her and brought presents for her. We also sang a song to her.

I made a beautiful greeting card for her and a red rose with it. She accepted it with a smile and thanked us for everything. I feel grateful to have such a gentle and great teacher in my life who supports me in every way.

In school, you tend to interact with a lot of people who can either impact your life positively or negatively. A teacher is one neutral person who will manage to strike a balance between the positive and the negative. Teachers have a huge responsibility that we students may not understand. All in all our teachers try their best to provide an education, guidance and discipline despite the challenges we might impose on them. The life of a student is entirely dependent on a teacher because most of their time is spent in school rather than with parents that is why teachers play a major role in shaping the lives of young children through school.

Who Is my favourite Teacher?

I have several teachers now that I am in high school but there is only one whom I can relate to as “the teacher” because of the impact he has made in my life. The teacher is male, of Indian origin and has a funny accent when he speaks. He is married and has three children. Actually, one of his children is my age and I know him through tennis practice because he comes to train with us sometimes. I like him because his sense of humor gives a good learning experience for the students. He is a math teacher and he is very good at what he does. Students tend to make fun of him because of his accent but he make fun of it himself, which gets even funnier. This teacher has been a great mentor to me and other student ever since we joined high school. I met him on a personal level one day after class when I needed clarification on a topic I had not quite understood. The teacher was kind to me and guided me through it. Since then, he took his own initiative to do follow-ups on me and I became really good in math due to his efforts.

Coincidentally, he also coaches my tennis team and we meet out on the field. We have won several awards as a tennis team under him. I feel connected to the teacher through his mentorship and he has become like a school parent to me because whenever I have an issue, he is free to help me out.

How the teacher has impacted my life in school .

Mentorship goes along way depending on the approach used. When I first joined high school, I did not have much confidence in myself. This teacher mentored me and made me believe in myself. The good thing is the attention he gives t is students because most of the times, he follows up on the performances and ensures that he does everything he can to help students improve academically. He has also been a role model to me through his way of doing things. He is dedicated to his work and he is an achiever. Through following his footsteps, I have been able to dedicate myself into studies and sports, which has helped me to achieve my goals.

In conclusion, good teachers are hard to find but when you find one, make the most out of them.

The word “teacher” depicts a person that teaches. English dictionary defines teacher as “a person who teaches, especially one employed in a school”. A more recent definition of teacher in the linguistics field is “a tutor that interacts with the learners in order to facilitate good learning”.

Types of Teachers

Old method teachers: the teachers found under this method adopt the rigid mode of impartation of knowledge. They control the class the way a king would rule over his subjects. Old method teachers are less concerned about the welfare of their learners, they are syllabus-oriented.

New method teachers: the tutors under this model are student-oriented. They are more concerned about their learners and their various levels of understanding. They accept and promote contributions in class unlike the old method teachers. New method teachers encourage the inquisitiveness of their students.

Attributes of a Teacher:

A standard teacher has all or most of the various characters imbedded in them:

  • Compassionate
  • Open-minded
  • A good counselor
  • Friendly and most importantly
  • Approachable.

Attributes of My Favorite Teacher:

Personally, I see my teacher as a mini-god because he leaves his mark on me. He influences my life in ways that enables me affect changes wherever I find myself.

He is a perfect example of the new model teachers. Basically, he is student-oriented. In the classroom, he employs the Eclectic mode of teaching (this is the combination of all the modes of teaching “discussion mode, play way mode, role play mode, question mode” so as to facilitate standard learning).

He comes into the classroom; starts the lecture with a recap of what was discussed in the previous class, gives room for the students to ask questions that arose from the last class, answers them and then starts a new topic.

To start a new topic, he starts with a mind-capturing introduction that attracts the attention of all students. Once he is through with introducing the topic, he gauges our reaction in order for him to know if his students are on the same page with him or left behind.

Then, he moves on to the discussion mode of teaching, whereby he throws questions to his students and accommodates both relevant and irrelevant answers, at the end of this model, he sieves through the answers provided, pick the relevant ones and add his own iota to it, he also always applaud the courage of all who answers his questions.

He moves either into the role play method or the play way method, here he selects students to either act out the lessons from the day’s topic or summarizes what he has taught for the day. The use of this particular mode enlightens the students more on the topic being discussed.

Finally, he moves over to the questions and revision mode, where he personally go through all he has taught over the course of the period. During this mode, he entertains questions from students on their personal areas of difficulties. Occasionally, he gives assignments to back up his teachings.

During his teachings, he pays close attention to the expression, mood, sitting posture and carriage of his students. This tells him when his students are lost, sad, worried, hungry, sick, away in dream land or simply tired.

Once he is done processing the information gotten from our faces, he either finds a way of brightening the mood of his students, bringing them back from the dream world, or ending his class without breaking his stride or alerting the whole population of students to what is currently going on.

It is only normal for a human being to reflect his mood whenever he is talking or interacting, but my teacher hardly ever allow his bad, horrible moods interfere with his teachings.

Outside the classroom, my teacher is approachable, fatherly, and jovial. He entertains all and no one is excluded from his open arms, smiles and affections.

He is a good counselor who is always ready to help me out of my tight corners. He gives twenty first century advises in a fatherly way.

Although, due to my teachers lenient ways with students, some students tend to be lazy, disrespectful, stubborn or rude. He has a way of being firm, maintaining class control while teaching.

In conclusion, my teacher has all the attributes and more of a new method teachers. He is capable of combining all modes of teaching, he is compassionate, passionate, and friendly. From my interactions with him, I can confidently say that he is one of the best teachers around.

A teacher plays a very important life in shaping your life as well as career. A good teacher is a blessing for the students in their early years and helps them understand the world; learn moral values along with education. Most importantly, a teacher helps you the art of survival and brings out the best of you.

Why a teacher is so important in a student’s life?

Teachers assume the essential job in our life to end up fruitful invocation and business. A decent teacher encourages us to end up great individual in the general public and great nation of the nation.

Teachers realize that students are the eventual fate of any country. So the future advancement of any country is in the hands of teachers. What we move toward becoming in life is relies upon teachers. Teachers confer the information and data in the mind of understudies to dissect. Investigating in the circumstance what is conceivable is the most essential thing that we gain from teachers. Energy about teachers is imperative since they are the most essential individuals in the nation. What we’re seeing today in business, legislative issues, and society all influenced by teachers. In this way, in India, we commend teacher’s day consistently on 5 September on the event of the birth Dr Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan.

My Teachers, My Role Models

During my formative years, I have come across many teachers who have influenced my life for the better. Having being studies in a convent school, I got to face a much-disciplined environment during my school years. The teachers, although were very polite in their behaviour, at the same time ensuring that we all followed a disciplined life. We were taught how to inculcate these values in our daily life so as to be better human beings when we grow up and face the world. Although all the teachers were good, there is one teacher whose teachings I just cannot forget. She is Ms Kirti Bhushan. Her teachings have been so powerful and impactful that I can still feel them during my day to day decisions even today.

My Best Teacher

Ms Kirti was my class educator as well and took participation in the daily activities with us as well. She was a strict instructor anyway extremely amusing and mind in nature. At the same time, she was extremely restrained and dependable. She did her work perfectly with the class at a perfect time without getting late. I liked her, particularly as she attempted simple approaches to show us beneficial things. We made the most of her class. She taught us English subject as well. She even made us giggle by telling heaps of jokes in the middle of when she taught. She likewise managed us exceptionally well amid any school or between school rivalry of the move, sports, scholastic, and so on. She instructed us to share things in class among our associates, for example, lunch or other required things.

Her Background

She was from Varanasi and completed her initial studies there itself. She took her higher education degrees from the Banaras Hindu University. She was extremely friendly and kind in nature. She realized well about how to deal with little youngsters in the class. Her one of a kind style of educating is perhaps what I mostly recall her for. I even meet her at times at whatever point I have to explain some intense inquiries of my day to day issues, she advises me so easily and comfortably. She looks extremely savvy with shimmer eyes and fair hair.

Her Smiling Attitude

She generally smiled when she entered the classroom and first got some information about our prosperity. She additionally helped us in the games at whatever point our games instructor was missing. She had a smiling face even during the strict environment during the examination times. She constantly rebuffed to the students who were with fragmented home works. She was acclaimed for making loads of fun amid the class time and ensure there was a positive ambience all around.

She was an instructor with great aptitudes of educating, well-disposed nature, great comical inclination, understanding and nice. I am proud to be one of her favourite students, as she always said good things about me to other teachers. At times she gave us chocolates on doing great in the class tests and exams. She never gave us heaps of assignments at home. She was exceptionally eager and constantly spurred us for doing our best in the examination.

Teacher’s In Today’s Scenario

Today the general population are changing and their reasoning and advancement thoughts are more against nature. Presently for the world, a teacher is only a teacher. Various offices and departments only tend to remember them on teachers day during various events and usually do not remember them otherwise. Individuals also share few posts via web-based networking media with respect to teachers and after that just forget them. Individuals overlook a bigger number of things that they are gaining from teachers. Schools and students also praise the teacher’s day event and value the endeavours teachers are doing. This is incredible if individuals ought to pursue the exercises of teachers also.

The genuine present for teachers is when students turn into a decent individual, effective in their vocation and business. Not all teacher are great in instructing and comparatively, not all students resemble “Shishya and Guru” particularly in the advanced period. A few teachers are incredible and they are dependable in heart of students all life along.

Students admire teachers for counsel and direction. Students are inspired by scholastic exercises as well as they are intrigued to pursue their life exercises. That is the reason it’s exceedingly essential for teachers to motivate students to pursue great propensities not terrible by their own precedent. An instruction is critical in everybody’s life and assumes different jobs in various phases of life. It’s imperative that individuals understand the significance of teachers and pursue their teachers in the right spirit.

The Teacher I Will Never Forget

Mr. Hemmelgarn is one of the few people who have made a positive impression on me. One of the few people who can make me laugh, smile, and actually enjoy myself. I am currently a junior in high school and last year I had an awful experience with a teacher (http://teenink.com/nonfiction/personal_experience/article/455397/The-Talk/). I have been clinically depressed for a couple of years and my experience last year did not help. I have thought of committing suicide and just wishing I was dead. I no longer think about committing suicide but I am questioning what the point of living is if we are all going to die. I cannot seem to get a positive view of life; except for when I am with Mr. Hemmelgarn. Mr. Hemmelgarn is my fourth period English teacher. My parents are divorced and I live with my mom. I have been looking for a male role model and the teacher from last year did not help. At the start of the year I had a different teacher who was considered crazy but I talked to my school counselor and I got switched into his class. He was the teacher that had helped me perfect my paper about the other teacher from last year. Fourth period is the only period I look forward to. No other class really interests me. English is not even my favorite subject; well it was not until I had Mr. Hemmelgarn as a teacher. He does simple things that make everyone in the class happy. He always has a smile on his face and starts the day off by saying “Good morning scholars” and then has a student read the quote and useless fact of the day and then rewards the student with a sticker. He also reads us three minutes of a book at the start of class. The best days are Fridays though when he shows the class Web Finds. Web Finds are funny or really impressive things found on YouTube or some other website that students submit to him. He makes sure to mute all of the bad words but during class he is not afraid to say the bad words. He always ends the week by telling us to “make wise choices.” I always smile when he says this. I really enjoy it when a student from another class walks in and he states their name and asks for a round of applause. I really do not know how to write about how excellent this man is. I would go get help from the school ERC (English Resource Center) where he spends most of his time. I might try and find another teacher to edit this but I feel that would be an awkward situation for him/her. He just does so many little things that make me so happy. Being near him makes me forget about all of the bad things in life and he is just such an understanding man. I feel as though I do not need 60 mg of Prozac when I am around him. He is the person I would consider my male role model. I would have him be my father role model and see if I could spend time with him to learn from him. He is just so nice and so positive and just all around excellent. Having the chance of a quiz every day after reading to make sure students are not solely relying on Spark notes, but he does not care if students use Spark notes to help their overall understanding of the reading. We determine if we have a quiz when he puts a stick on one of his hands and then he asks “who’s going to gamble today?” Everyone in the class is nervous but giddy all at the same time. I cannot really explain why but everything about him is so great. He has referred to himself as “fat Mr. Hemmelgarn” and understands that he is over-weight but he is trying to do something about it. Everyone likes him. He is the greatest teacher ever. I want him to hand me my diploma when I graduate and I want to have him be the person I base my life on. I really did not plan on growing up with anyone. I planned on living alone in an apartment by myself because I was afraid to get close to anyone. I might actually base my life off of this man because of the great and positive influence he has had on my life. I feel like I would do anything for him. In the least creepy way possible I think I love him. I wish my dad was like him. I wish I had grown up with him. When he was gone for six weeks because of his new baby it was awful. The substitute teacher was awful but him just being gone actually hurt me inside. This man is someone I can say I truly admire, though he will most likely never know that. I just want to thank him for everything he has done even though all he is just being himself. He is not going out of the way to be anyone else he is being his good old honest self and that is something that everyone likes about him. I doubt anyone could dislike him and though I doubt many students feel this strongly about him, I am sure if the students took the time to think about what he has done they would truly admire all of his work. Thank you Mr. Hemmelgarn, I appreciate everything you have and will do for me.

  • The Teacher Whom I Will Never Forget

The learning experience expressed in this narrative is about a teacher who used very good teaching methods and who enabled my peer to understand anatomy and physiological concepts very well. Other than using books, the teacher used songs and jokes during class sessions. Further, the use of PowerPoint enabled my peer to understand concepts better. More importantly, the caring nature of the teacher was important for the attention of the class. In the beginning, my peer hooks my attention by the description of her high school; down the hallways. Her description of the teacher, Mr. Sherden, is also another thing that hooked my attention at the beginning of the essay.

If this sample essay on "The Teacher Whom I Will Never Forget" doesn’t help, our writers will!

In this essay, the thesis statement is that having a well-rounded teacher really strengthens a students learning performance. Although this thesis statement is good it could be made better by specifically stating what my peer implied by a well rounded teacher. Perhaps, my peer could say a teacher who uses diverse teaching techniques instead of a well-rounded teacher. The other paragraphs of the essay support this thesis statement. Specifically, they show how the teacher was well rounded; how he used songs and visual PowerPoint to teach the students. Further, how he asked the students about their well-being supports the notion that he was well rounded.

The body paragraphs make use of descriptions and examples to make the narrative move along. Specifically, the description of the state of the class, as well as the nature of the teacher is not only vivid but also lucid. Mr. Sherden is described as a middle-aged man who always wore a button up and a tie. Additionally, there is the use of figurative language in the description. Specifically, she describes how the students moved into the classroom like a marching parade. Further, shutting the classroom is a sign that the teacher did not want any disturbance.

The writing of my peer has a very somber mood and a good tone. In this regard, from the way the learning environment is described to the nature of the teacher, I am left curious on the next turn of events. As such, I yearn to know what the next sentence talks about. To conclude the essay, my peer explains how the experience that she got from the anatomy and physiology class made her better prepared for the college education. Further, my peer appreciated the role that the teacher played in making her becomes a better student.

The narrative is composed of some strong and weak points. However, the strong points are more than the weak points. In this regard, the string point is when Mr. Sherden, the teacher, enters the classroom and greets the students. However, the weak point is when he shuts the classroom door so that no late student will get in. To make the draft stronger, I would add how the students who were late, and who were locked outside, reacted after the class. Additionally, I would explain the reaction of the teacher when the students who were late knocked the door. This way I will make the narrative stronger. The narrative does not have errors and grammatical mistakes except in the heading. The words teacher whom is wrong. It should have started with the article the teacher whom otherwise, the narrative had good grammar and few errors.

Narrative Essay on The Day I never forget

Narrative essay generator.

There are moments in life that leave an indelible mark on our hearts and minds, shaping us into who we are. These experiences, often unexpected, can change our perspective, teach us valuable lessons, or simply remind us of the beauty and fragility of life. One such day that I will never forget occurred during the summer before my final year of high school, a day that started like any other but ended up teaching me about courage, loss, and the power of community.

The Morning Calm

The day began with the usual tranquility of a summer morning. The sun’s golden rays gently pierced through my window, casting a warm glow across my room. Birds chirped harmoniously, creating a melody that signaled the start of a new day. I woke up feeling refreshed and eager to enjoy my day off from school and part-time job responsibilities. Little did I know, this day would be far from ordinary.

The Unexpected Call

As I was enjoying my breakfast, the phone rang, shattering the morning’s peace. It was my friend Alex, whose voice trembled with urgency. “There’s a huge fire at the community center!” he exclaimed. My heart skipped a beat. The community center was not just a building; it was the heart of our small town, a place where people of all ages came together for various activities and support. Without a second thought, I told Alex I would meet him there.

The Scene at the Community Center

Arriving at the community center, I was met with a scene of chaos and desperation. Thick plumes of smoke billowed into the sky, and flames devoured the structure that had stood as a beacon of unity in our community. Firefighters battled the blaze, but the fire’s ferocity was overwhelming. Community members gathered, many in tears, as they watched decades of memories turn to ash.

Joining the Effort

Despite the despair that hung heavy in the air, there was a sense of unity among the onlookers. People started organizing, offering whatever help they could. I joined a group of volunteers helping to move equipment and salvageable items from the parts of the building not yet engulfed by flames. The heat was intense, and the smoke made it difficult to see and breathe, but the collective determination to save what we could, fueled our efforts.

A Lesson in Courage and Loss

As the day wore on, the reality of the situation sank in. The fire, sparked by an electrical fault, had consumed much of the community center. The loss was not just physical; it was emotional. Programs for children, support groups for the elderly, and spaces for community gatherings were gone. Yet, amid the loss, there was courage. The bravery of the firefighters, risking their lives to contain the fire, and the resilience of the community, coming together in the face of adversity, taught me about the strength of the human spirit.

The Power of Community

In the days that followed, the true power of community became evident. Fundraisers were organized, and plans were made to rebuild the community center. People from all walks of life contributed in whatever way they could, showing that the spirit of our community was not lost but strengthened by the tragedy. This collective effort highlighted the importance of community support and resilience.

Essay On The Day I Will Never Forget Essay In 100 To 500 Words Words

It was the 5th of May in the year 2009, a day when the sun beamed down with all its might, casting a warm and golden embrace upon my hometown of Elmwood Park, nestled snugly in the heart of New Jersey. This day, with its tranquil breeze carrying whispers of summer, held the promise of a joyful Memorial Day celebration, a time when families from every corner of the town would gather to honor the past and embrace the present. The streets were lined with anticipation as the Memorial Day Parade took center stage, boasting its vibrant procession of dancing spirits and resonant marching bands. A day for cheer and jubilation, or so I thought.

As I stood amid the boisterous crowd, allowing my senses to drink in the kaleidoscope of sights and sounds, an unexpected epiphany dawned upon me. It was as if the universe, in its infinite wisdom, gently tapped me on the shoulder, inviting me to peer through a different lens. In that unassuming moment, the world around me seemed to slow down, allowing me to reflect on the ephemeral nature of life itself. This epiphany, unassuming as it may be, carved a niche within my soul, urging me to embrace every moment as if it were a precious gem.

Life, I realized, was a delicate tapestry, woven with threads of uncertainty and beauty. Each day, each second, was a stroke on this canvas of existence, and I resolved then and there to paint it with hues of gratitude, love, and presence. The simplicity of that moment resonated deeply, a beacon of wisdom amidst the colorful chaos of the parade.

In the wake of that transformative realization, my outlook on life underwent a profound metamorphosis. The mundane assumed a new allure, and the ordinary became extraordinary. I found myself savoring the taste of my morning coffee, relishing the laughter of my friends, and basking in the warmth of the sun’s embrace. The pageantry of life’s grandest moments paled in comparison to the quiet beauty of the everyday. Gratitude flourished within me, a fragrant blossom that perfumed every facet of my being.

However, life is seldom a tranquil river; it is a tumultuous sea with tides that ebb and flow, sometimes with a ferocity that catches us off guard. As the years rolled on, I encountered my share of challenges – personal, professional, and emotional. Yet, armed with the lesson of that unforgettable day, I navigated these tempests with a newfound resilience. In the face of adversity, I clung to the simple yet profound truth: every storm eventually gives way to a calm horizon.

The day I will never forget wasn’t just a picturesque memory; it became a roadmap for navigating the labyrinth of life. It taught me that while we cannot control the winds that blow our way, we can adjust our sails and steer our course with unwavering determination. It beckoned me to find solace in the arms of gratitude during moments of despair and to seek joy even in the shadows of sorrow.

In conclusion, the day I will never forget stands as a beacon of light in the tapestry of my life, a day when a seemingly ordinary moment transformed into an extraordinary revelation. It was a day that whispered profound truths in the language of simplicity, reminding me to embrace life’s uncertainties and dance in its fleeting embrace. That day sculpted me into a person who understands the significance of cherishing every heartbeat and treasuring every breath. It is a day that I carry with me, a lodestar guiding me through life’s vast ocean, inspiring me to sail onward, undeterred by the tides of fate.
