उत्तर

A teacher is a person who educates a group of students known as his pupils. The teacher instills in his students, the values of discipline, responsibility, honesty, courage, and truthfulness. The teacher guides his students in the right direction and prevents them from falling prey to bad intentions and influences. My favorite teacher is my English teacher. She is an elderly lady with great knowledge. Her class is my favorite of the day.

She is a well-known face in our school. In her class, almost every student pays attention to what she says. She uses the help of charts and new methodology to make us understand even better. She makes sure that her students are comfortable with her and not threatened by her. My English teacher was like a mother to me.

Her affection towards me was like a mother’s towards her child. She is the person who pushed me to try everything in life. Her constant dedication towards my interests and hobbies motivated me to pursue the same with more enthusiasm. It is because of her that I complete my work in time and with sincerity even today.
