We owe a lot to some people around the world because it is they who have one way or another of an idea. To be in the presence we are today, we can probably single out our teachers among them as the most important. Today I would like to talk about why the substitute teacher, my English teacher, influenced me significantly to do better in my life. His name was Mr. Ham Sen, and he used to teach me English at my school. I first learned about him when I wanted to enroll in an English conversation class, but unfortunately, the class was full, and my request for enrollment was denied. There is a high number of students in China but a rather limited number of classes. Until, of course, I received special recognition from Mr. Ham, so I rushed to him and asked for his permission. However, he wasn't very happy to see me but allowed me into his class that night. Anyway, on the very first day in his class, Mr. Ham made it absolutely clear that he meant business and that he was going to make English really easy for us. In fact, Mr. Ham sometimes used to ask each of his students, especially his latecomer students, to participate in his lectures. He even used to ask for their permission.
