The person I respect the most is my teacher, Mr. Moustin, who serves as moderator in the IB club. If I’m not mistaken, I first met him in August when I went to the IB club to register. It was my first time there and the initial day I was open for everyone to decide if they wanted to join or not. After attending Mr. Moustin’s lesson, I made the decision to register. He is an intelligent man in his 50s who speaks excellent English, having lived in the USA for 20 years. What amazes me about him is that he holds four completely different degrees. I can honestly say that he is full of sophisticated ideas that enrich our knowledge and encouraged us to sing outside the box. In my opinion, this ability can largely be attributed to his background in psychology. One aspect I find particularly appealing about him is his skill in selecting topics and posing challenging questions, which push us to think critically. There hasn’t been a single lesson where I haven’t learned something valuable, as Mr. Moustin consistently shares his personal experiences. Take our lesson, for example, our last lesson. Our topic was life and many questions about it, which makes everyone sink deeply and ask questions were very sensitive. I found myself zoned out. We exchanged a lot of precious ideas that made the day meaningful and indelible. I respect him not only for his language skills and work, but also his personality as he is a single dad with four sons and loves as well as cares about animals more than anything. All in all, he is wise man who can be a role model for everyone. Thank you.
