Scott is a special teacher

Teachers are architects of human souls. Every person will meet lots of teachers during his or her lifetime and be educated by them; however only these teachers who own special characters left deep impressions on their students. Scott is one of these special teachers, for he worked so hard, was enthusiastic in class, and kept his students in mind all the time.

Scott was a very hard working man in that he returned every assignment of his students’ on time no matter how difficult to finish correcting all of the students’ papers was; furthermore, he engaged in getting his PHD. Once, he got up at five o’clock in the morning in order to finish correcting students’ essays. He got up so early that he was out of himself that day and said by mistake that he would return his students’ final exam papers, whereas he should return students’ essays; nevertheless, he was so happy and satisfied with himself because he eventually finished correcting all the assignments. He once told students that he was so happy to move into a new office where he could concentrate on studying PHD in a quiet corner, and that he studied three hours each time. What a hard working man he was!

Scott was especially enthusiastic in his classes, for he was easily excited and brought all parts of his body into play. He would congratulated to students by saying “bing bing bing bing” as long as students got the right answers to his questions. It seemed as if he himself answered right. All of his students remembered clearly that Scott was extremely excited during the chapter of gender and sex. He approached students like a chimpanzee and even knelt down so as to explain the word koutou. No one could think out why he was so enthusiastic in his classes, but he indeed was.

Another special character of Scott was that he kept students in mind all the time. He was worried when students didn’t do their homework; moreover, he gave students extra free tutoring every Wednesday. He often seemed to ask students questions casually; as a matter of fact, he checked that whether or not students did their homework. Whenever he found that students didn’t do their homework, he was worried and urged students doing homework by reminding them that quizzes were coming. From students’ assignments he knew that students were still confused about some grammar, so he gave extra tutoring to students and cleared their mist. He called it “Wednesday with Scott”. He must consider his students all the time; otherwise, he wouldn’t be worried about students or offer them extra help.

Working so hard, being enthusiastic in classes, and keeping students in mind all the time were three factors that made Scott a very special teacher. He not only left deep impressions on his students but also became a model for students. Maybe some of his students would become teachers some day. They would learn from their special teacher and carry on his special characters.
