Describe a person who impressed you the most when you were in primary school
You should say

– Why he/she impressed you the most
– And how you feel about him/her
- Well, throughout our life we get influenced by many people around us such as parents, mentors, coaches etc.
- Here I would like to talk about a person who impressed me a lot in my elementary school.
- He was our maths teacher named Mr Robert.
- He came into our school when I was in 3rd grade.
- Before that, I was struggling in maths and doing calculations.
- Since he started teaching our class, math became my strongest point.
- Actually, with his teaching skills, I started enjoying math rather than taking it as a burden.
- In primary school, I used to hesitate to ask questions.
- But Robert sir was so friendly and approachable that every student including me started sharing their math problems with him without any hesitation.
- He had every quality that one good teacher should possess such as patience, good communication skills and understanding students’ problems.
- The thing that really impressed me was his way of teaching math.
- His teaching techniques were creative and super easy to understand.
- As we all know, math is counted as one of the toughest subjects.
- But his teaching style was very practical as he used to take real examples to make us understand the math calculations.
- He had never got angry while teaching especially when we used to ask him the same problem several times.
- Actually, he taught us by coming down to our level.
- At the same time, he was a kind-hearted person and assisted many poor students by providing them free study material.
- As he instilled the attitude required to solve math calculations into me, I have performed really well in higher grades.
- As mathematics is the most important subject in higher study as well, I must say, whatever I have achieved in the study, it is all because of teachers like him.
- He changed the lives of several students in a positive way.
- He also got a teacher of the year award at our school’s annual function.
- To be honest, I would say he is one of the best teachers I have ever had.
