I’m going to talk about Mr. M who was one of the greatest teachers. He was my English teacher in secondary school. First, I was really impressed by his unique way of teaching English. He didn’t first learn to memorize long lists of my new vocabulary or grammatical, grammatical poems. In this aspect, he told stories and attached each word to an image. So we could remember that word more easily. Secondly, he was able to explain something complicated in a much simple way. I remember that lots of my friends in other classes felt it hard to memorize or erase the usage. Travelling is a tense in English, but in my class, it was really difficult to do that because Mr. M explained it very clearly and in a seamless way. Third, he was so enraising, he gave us the motivation to really try harder and do not give up by telling us motivation stories of famous people who have felt thousands of times before achieving the goals. I still remember one of the inspirational quotes. If you don’t believe yourself, how can you expect others to believe you?

I'm going to talk about Mr. M, who was one of the greatest teachers. He was my English teacher in secondary school. First, I was really impressed by his unique way of teaching English. He didn't make us memorize long lists of new vocabulary or grammatical poems. Instead, he told stories and attached each word to an image, so we could remember that word more easily. Secondly, he was able to explain something complicated in a much simpler way. I remember that lots of my friends in other classes found it hard to memorize or understand the usage of tenses in English, but in my class, it was really easy to do that because Mr. M explained it very clearly and seamlessly. Third, he was so encouraging; he gave us the motivation to really try harder and not give up by telling us motivational stories of famous people who had failed thousands of times before achieving their goals. I still remember one of the inspirational quotes: 'If you don't believe in yourself, how can you expect others to believe in you?'
