How a Caring Teacher Helped Me Learn English

Abstract

As a child, I was rather shy. Raising my hand in class or actively participating did not come easily to me. Most of the time, I preferred to observe and listen to others instead. However, English lessons were a different story. The moment I stepped into the classroom, I suddenly felt like a duck in water. Since childhood, I have always been fascinated by the language and eager to learn it. Yet, it was not just my passion for English that helped me open up — it was the influence of my primary school teacher.
