Solution 1
Being a postgraduate in English Literature from the University of Mumbai, Ms Leticia D'Costa's passion for language is evident in her teaching. Three other teachers had already given up on our unruly class, but Ms D'Costa exhibited equanimity while dealing with us. Although we were initially sceptical, she won us over with her refreshing approach to teaching. She encouraged us to think critically in order to solve problems and stressed on punctuality. She helped the weak students to overcome their fears and helped them score well. Though it has only been a year, she is already my favourite teacher.
Solution 2
My Favourite Teacher
Our English teacher, Mrs. Rita Raman is one of the best teachers that I have ever come across. She graduated from Hindu College and then secured her B.Ed. degree from the University of Delhi. She is very friendly and charming. Her classes are extremely interesting. Instead of giving a monotonous lecture, she allows the students to speak and share their views. The students are never afraid to approach her. The best thing about Mrs. Raman is her punctuality. She never fails to complete the syllabus on time. Mrs. Raman gives special attention to the weaker students and motivates them to work hard. She is indeed a wonderful person.

The evening came, and nobody appeared to bring the poor bird a drop of water; it opened its beautiful wings, and fluttered about in its anguish; a faint and mournful ''Tweet, tweet,'' was all it could utter, then it bent its little head towards the flower, and its heart broke for want and longing. The flower could not, as on the previous evening, fold up its petals and sleep; it dropped sorrowfully. The boys only came the next morning; when they saw the dead bird, they began to cry bitterly, dug a nice grave for it, and adorned it with flowers. The bird's body was placed in a pretty red box; they wished to bury it with royal honours. While it was alive and sang they forgot it, and let it suffer want in the cage; now, they cried over it and covered it with flowers. The piece of turf, with the little daisy in it . was thrown out on the dusty highway.
