my favorite teacher

Tons of thanks to you for initiating this discussion that to0 on the right day as today is very important day for me in my student life as I have topped in annual exams after complete five years . And the class in which I topped wast the first class of senior secondary school(tougher level.) I was feeling very happy, celebrated with friends, went to park, went to temple. But there was still something missing, and that something is now complete. The 'something' I am speaking here is nothing but sparing my time at this moment to remind= in my heart of my favorite teacher. He was our Literature and Social studies teacher for about three years (sixth to eighth). But , I had to change the school due to the transfer of my father. But , he had a great impact on me and owe him to great deal that he came in my life. I don't remember much of the social studies which he taught but I do remember the moral stories and moral messages he used to constantly give us . He used to be our moral science teacher too during my sixth standard. I have been much spiritually influenced by him. His tale is endless so I think I must stop my tale here itself. CONGRATULATIONS to you that you were able to meet him. I have already planned to meet him after I become something nice man in society and give my achievements as his fees to him. But, now he is practically thousands of kilometer from where he lives. Once again THANK YOU.

There are teachers that really do wonders to their students and we salute them. I'd been a teacher too but I have only gotten close to a few students.

It's good that you had found a teacher that indeed shows how a teacher should be (second parents). These days, it's tough to have that - with the number of students per class, I doubt the teacher could even remember the name of each! I didn't really have the chance to experience those with any of my teachers. Though I have a favorite, it was more because of how she was a friend to all of us (not really similar to how you could be close with your teacher). But still the same, I respected her wisdom and guidance for all of us. Have a great mylot experience ahead!

yes of course that our teacher in school should act as a our second parents who will guide and take care of us,every level in my high school year,i always had favorite teachers where my grades was good and high,most of them were my adviser.

I feel nostalgic reading your post Gem. Yes, it's nice to reminisce the past let alone memories about school. Mind you, I remember all my elementary teacher's complete names! yet can't recall any of my university professors names, their surnames at least. I haven't seen them for decades. I miss them all. You're right they're not just teachers but a second mother, too. Memories from my elem were what I treasure the most. :)

Yes teachers are the one we look up to when parents are not around.I have very good memories with my art teacher.She heplped me a lot.She was honest and nice.Sometimes when I am at my home town I see her and it always brings back good memories and warms my heart. I always thank her for everything she did.

Thanks for sharing in details, though i have taught in colleges for over 3 decades, i have greatest regards for my teachers; similarly my students have great regard for me when i see my teacher, i touch their feet that is the way of showing respect, and seek their blessings.. some of my primary teachers are alive too.
