Who is Your MOST Unforgettable Teacher Ever?

my school life was the best....and so i have many "most unforgettable teachers " but the one i really loved was my english teacher who was with us uptil the 5th grade and then left the school for reasons we students still dont know....she had the most amazing abitily to teach in a very unique way.... she was a fantastic singer with a beautiful voice and also taught us some very melodious old english numbers which all us students still have written in our "song book" but those were the most memorable days with her.... even after she left the next teacher who came to teach us english was a sweetheart too.....

If I'm gonna pay tribute to anyone, I would firstly give it to my elementary teachers - all of them, they are the ones who mold me (together with my mom and family) to whoever I am today. But if I am to answer your question about my most unforgettable teacher - I would choose Ms. Sibal - my secondary English teacher (actually, I don't remember her first name, silly me, but I do remember meeting her on my third year and being with her up to my senior year). She made me understand everything English, she hoodwinked (in a good way) me into loving books, she's the reason why I am fascinated with mythology, she made me enjoy literature so much, I end up taking Mass Communication and dreamt of being a writer (well, I was, until I got married). That's how broad her influenced was on me, how can I ever forget her.

I must mention my chemistry teacher here. Till the 7th standard, it was my mom who took care of my studies. My chemistry teacher started teaching me chemistry and maths from standard 8. In India, there are several media of teaching at school i.e you can either study in an English medium school or a vernacular medium school. Now I was studying in an English medium school while Sir, not only studied in vernacular throughout his academic years, but also taught in a vernacular medium school. So I can well imagine how difficult it was for him to correlate and explain the various terms, which were in English in my book. However, that did not deter him and in all respects, he was the best teacher I ever had. A simple man with in-depth knowledge and the willingness to teach and connect with his students, and not just earn money.

She sounds like a lovely teacher. I have had a few amazing teachers. I was very shy at primary school and my grade four teacher Mrs Hawkins was so lovely. I feel that she brought out the best in me and understood how I felt. She also wrote on my report card that I was 'a pleasure to teach'. At high school, most of the teachers were strict as my high school had a good reputation and also worked on upkeeping it. I felt that the teachers didn't take the kids' feelings into consideration because when you're a teenager life is hard enough at home and with your peers etc to have a teacher picking on you too. When I decided to leave high school, only two teachers were supportive of me. All the others sort of rolled their eyes and you could tell they were thinking 'oh great, another high school drop out who will do nothing with her life'. However Mr Graham and Mr Elsole both chatted to me about my options after school and encouraged me to continue my education elsewhere, which I did. I loved school and I loved learning but I needed respect and guidance from the teachers, not to be treated like a naughty 6 year old! I am vet nursing right now and I will be going back to university to study this year. I am glad I made the decision to leave and take my time to figure out what I wanted without al the extra pressure of nasty teachers. I am hapy with how my life turned out and I would love to see Mr Graham and Mr Elsole one more time to thank them for supporting me in my decision.

His name was Mr Pigeon. I was in 5th grade at the time. I was horribly ridiculed, mocked, teased and abused in school and he was the only one to show me any kind of kindness. Also, I feel it necessary to point out that he was Native American and for that reason I have always had an affinity toward Native Americans. That may sound kind if silly, but, that's how he affected my psyche. Purrs, Catwoman=^..^= & Mija

My grade four teacher,Mrs Lucia Sumaculob was great teacher for she was so patient for teaching us and she is second mother for me.I miss my teacher but i have still my communication with them thru her daughter and happened to be my friend.

i can not forget my social studies teacher.she had a peculiar accent and we used to tease her about the way she used to blow her nose.but she was extremely goodnatured and used to give each and every child her personal attention.

My most unforgettable teacher ever was my college English professor. No need to mention his name because he is the only one that I cannot forget when I go back on the days that I am still studying. BEcause of him, I realized how important studying was. Also, I learned to love reading more than I used to. THank you so much for him.:-)

My most unforgettable teacher is Mrs. Maala, my high school teacher Aside from her kindness, she really cares about her students especially me. She even buy lunch for me and she took care of me then... Godspeed...

well nice discussion and when i am in school i like my science teacher and she will teach very well and she is very good teacher in my school...i dont have rights to tell her name but she is very good...she unforgettable teacher in my life..

My favorite teacher in high school was our Dutch teacher in 5th and 6th year (As Dutch is my mother tongue, we had her 5 hours a week). She had a great, dry sense of humor, and when she was telling a story, I was just hanging on her lips, she was very passionate and interesting. She was also very severe when it came to spelling mistakes and tests, so almost the whole year hated her, because it was a hard subject and many failed on the exams. But as I was quite good at it, I love languages and was very interested, I loved her because she was trying to get the most out of her students! She also organized the trip in our last year to Italy, which was great, my friends and I were constantly fooling around with her, you could feel she appreciated us and we really admired her, she was also a fabulous guide, telling little stories about everything we visited. I think it's great when you can have such a good understanding with a teacher! She also influenced my decision to go studying literature and linguistics in university, we had real long and deep discussions about it. With the loving and passionate way she talked about certain books, she encouraged me to read them, I've always loved to read, anything that's well written, and she knew exactly what I meant when I said that I can still love a book even though there's no decent story or an inunderstandable plot as long as I love the way the author plays with language, which the rest of the class really didn't get. We actually are quite similar to each other in interests, humor and stuff. I'd love to talk to her again, about everything I've learned in my years at university, but I haven't seen her in two years, ever since I've graduated from high school.

The teacher that i would not forget in my whole life is my high school teacher.. Mr.Ericson Elnar..Because he's so kind to all his student especially the section that i belong..he always go with us where ever we go..his cool teacher..and ect... and i really miss him..especially now his stop teaching in our school in high school...this all i can say in this discussion... THANK YOU....

for more than ten years of going school, the best teacher that i will never do forget is my fourth year high school class adviser and at the same time my math IV teacher. she has been a great teacher and a mother to us, everytime we commit mistakes, she usually approach us in a very kind manners without saying any violent words and things that may hurt her students. She was very persevering at the same time as she taught us everything she know. after each class discussions, we usually find time to talk to her for some advices. she keeps on reminding us the thoughts that became very useful to us as we grow up each day of our lives. days may count fast, but no words can never describe how lucky and grateful I am to be a student and a son of a very good teacher and mother -- Mrs. Perla L. Sayon. :)

My most unforgettable teacher is maa'm ruth corbeta cause she teach me how to play computer.and she's so nice she's giving us quiz but it was not hard to answer. and when the time that she fixed me as a muse to our parade! i won't forget that time cause i'm so happy cause on that day i've meet my dream boy.

I have many unforgettable teachers for the main reason that I am fifty two years old and have had wonderful teachers right from my school up to PG. Only today morning I was casually mentioning to my husband how I used to go like Mary's little lamb after one teacher named Pattu in my LKG.There was another one Padma/Mrs.Rathnam, who had asked for donation in my 3rd standard. I had mentioned this to my father who said in his rare irritable mood [normally a large-hearted man who was supposed to be very generous] ‘Your teachers seem to have no other work’. I promptly reported this verbatim to the said teacher and she called my mother and spoke to her. You can imagine my mother’s reaction to me and my adamance in speaking the truth at all times. Later, I switched over to another school in my fourth standard. When I was in fifth standard we had to take needlework as a compulsory optional subject. I had never touched a needle in my life before that and in all my innocence I reported faithfully to the needlework teacher, a nun [Sister Ursula] that I did not know what a back stitch was. I got a tight slap right on my cheek and till today I hate back stitches Then there was a Maths teacher by name Maria Joseph and she had such a graceful face and compassionate nature that we used to call her mercy personified. There was a Geography teacher named Cynthia Joseph in my seventh standard and I would never forget her. Once after writing my exam, I packed the map that I had to submit along with me when I went back home. I was stupefied to see it at home and the next day I went to her in tears and told her what had happened .She trusted me totally and took my map for correction[of course I had lived up to the trust because I did not even look at it for answers, but it was extraordinarily kind of her] In college were my most important teachers and two of them stand apart, ever fresh in my memory. One is Mrs. Christine Gomez and the other one is Mrs.Inez.Mrs.Inez was virtually our class teacher in my post graduation class and we have had unforgettable fun wIth her. She is an extremely kindhearted, simple soul and I would never forget her. When I had the fortune to be invited to my former college as a chief guest in 2004, she sat with me and spoke to me and this is my most memorable day in this life. There is the teacher of the greatest importance and this is Mrs.Ghomez.She taught us English drama and the way she enacted the last scene of Dr.Faustus in my undergraduate class is still fresh in my mind.I was always first in her class. She also taught us Moral Science, I used to diligently follow her advice and this has stood me in good stead in my married life. My college was a wonderful one and I remember many teachers of mine, but these are all very important and would never be forgotten. There is one unforgettable master who taught me and guided me with my school lessons at home.Till date I am good in spelling, have a good handwriting and do fast mental arithmetic.I owe all these skills to that old, kind, extremely simple gentleman.He was an ardent follower of Gandhiji and discontinued his studies in the period of the independence struggle.At the age of seventy six his handwriting used to be very good and he insisted on our good handwriting and gave us a dictation everyday to improve our spelling skills.His grammar was excellent and he had a very simple way of expressing himself.He was a man born in 1902 or so and was a very poor gentleman.But he always looked contented and happy with life and taught the meaning of contentment to the kids.He was a great man and I shall never forget him.Even now, when I think of him and and his simple style my heart goes out to him-every Diwali we used to go to his place and give him a small gift.He was a private tuition master who got some measley wages but he had the heart of a King.I am filled with gratitude when I think of him.His family did not enjoy any material comforts and lived a fairly difficult life.But they too never would complain and later one daughter of his got a good government job and settled down comfortably. This is a tribute to all the teachers in my curriculum and I owe all my achievements to my teachers.

Hi mjmlagat, It is strange how we never forget certain people, I suppose it is the kindness they show. I still remember my grade three teacher although it is sixty years since I've seen her. I sometimes wonder if she is still living. Imagine having that kind of influence on someone that they would remember you for sixty years. She probable believes everyone has forgotten her. Blessings.

The most unforgettable teacher I've had, I think, it would have to be my grade 10 history teacher. He was awesome. He gave a speech at my graduation and you could see how much the students loved that teacher. It was incredible! He was the most popular teacher, in my opinion, and with good reason. He was always joking with the students, just being really awesome.

yes it's very true.

Mine was my chemistry/AP BIO/ Anatomy/physiology teacher Ted Thomas. The first day of class he blew up a water jug sending molten pieces all over the room and setting the kleenex box on fire. He also gave us touch explosives. They would turn anything they touched brown, which pissed off the janitors. One of the kids put it on the teachers door, and when another teacher grabbed it it did not go off. She touched her white pants which made a big brown stain on it. She cursed Thomas out something fierce. But by god he was one of the hardest and most trusting teachers I ever had. He is one of the reasons that I study chemistry in college. He was one of the greatest teachers I ever had.

Teachers as you said are really unforgatable. They are like our second parents. We need to respect them. I studied in India. I have gone through many schools as my father gets transfrerred so often. My faurite teachers are maths teacher Mrs. Santhi. She likes me very much that she appreciates me more in class and helps me in everything. She thing every one as her kids. She is intelligent and well equipped too. I really apolligise for leaving her contact. Thanks for all teachers who wipes tears in others life and brings them up.
