Let me tell you about my history teacher in middle school. His name was Mister Wu and he was by far the most influential teacher I have ever had. Mister Wu was a passionate and fascinating teacher. His classes were always lively and never boring. He knew how to get our attention and he had a talent for telling stories and anecdotes about historical events.
Mister Wu was a strict person and in his class no one would dare to interrupt him, but he often asked us for our point of view and he tried to make us think by ourselves. You know, in China, most of the time teachers ask us to listen and recite. His methods were a little different and his witty personality captivated every one of my classmates.
Mister Wu was always well-prepared for class. He was responsible and very knowledgeable. When you teach history, you must remember a lot of dates and explain to students the influence of important events on our history.
But after class, Mister Wu was also a very considerate and thoughtful person who. cared about us. He often walked around the courtyard to talk with us and ask us how we were doing.
I remember one day he got a bit upset because one student was complaining that the College Entrance Examination was too difficult a test. Our teacher slammed a book on the table and told us that everything in life was difficult but that that was no reason to give up. He said that our efforts would be rewarded and that life was all about patience and enthusiasm. I try to remember his speech whenever I feel tired of my studies. He taught me how to remain positive and optimistic.
