I went to school in China for four years and for another six years in Canada. There are two teachers from these countries that really impressed me even though they are very1.
When I2to Canada, I couldn't even order food on the flight. After two months on an ESL (English as a Second Language) course, I got my first3card. My mark in English was 65. I was very4. I couldn't5what would be said at the parent-teacher interview.
"Hello!" Mrs. Franceschini welcomed my parents. "Richard just came to Canada a few months ago. I am amazed at how his English has6so fast," she said. "On his first day, he was very shy and only used7words. Now he can answer and ask questions by us in whole sentences."
8many other Chinese parents, my mom asked if she could give me extra homework. "Don't worry. Richard is already working very hard," Mrs. Franceschini laughed. Then she shook my hand. "Richard, you did a good job. I am9of you!" she said.
Back in Shanghai, my teacher Miss Li was very10. In a test, my average(平均分)was 97, top of the class. I was proud to take parents11the interview.
Miss Li told my parents, "Feng Yu is doing pretty well. But because of his12, he lost 3 points in math. Otherwise he would be the top of the school."
I thought she was being13to me. But when I was about to leave, I realized Miss Li was ver nice. She hosted a party for me and gave me a big card. Her phone number and e-mials address were on the card. "Feng Yu, you re my best student. I14you a successful life," she wrote. "If you want to talk or need any help, I am always here for you."
Miss Li and Mrs. Franceschini are both great teachers, just in different ways. One built up my learning abilities.15gave me tons of confidence and made learning enjoyable. I'm proud to have had them as my teachers.
