My Teacher, MY Hero

     " With power comes great responsibility ". Just like Spiderman, Superman, Wonderwoman and any other super heroes in our imagination, they became a legend. These heroes have kept the minds of the people that heroes have to offer big things. In our modern world, these fantasy-like heroes do not exist, but simple and naive heroes are what we're having. As we go on in our lives, we meet these heroes and thank them for giving all they got to everyone, because simply, being a hero requires strength and courage to help people in need. The heroes that I'm saying are our parents, the government, the people we meet or not. An example of these are our noble teachers. What can a teacher offer to his or her students ?

     Teachers are always heroes in every generation due to the fact that they help, inspire and most of all understand. I have this teacher of mine, she's not my favorite, but she inspires me and that makes her a hero to me. She is so much like a hero. She never gives up for her students to learn and excel. Sometimes, she easily gets mad, but she also lends all of us a big smile, because heroes always smile even though they're in pain or bad mood. Like a hero,she saves students who have failing grades by teaching so passionately and that's a good thing. I love her sense of humor, because I really love jokes. In the middle of the class, she finds an opportunity to have a good laugh for each and everyone of us. She really makes me admire her by her intelligence. She is so smart that she easily notices her mistakes while discussing the lessons. Even though she tells us that we're lames, I know she is doing it for us to really do hard in studying our lessons. To prove ourselves and be proud of ourselves. Last year, I had this failing grade in her subject. She told me what's wrong, and it's so painful to hear. But instead of calling me a fool or lame, she encouraged me not to give up, that I still have the time and chance to excel. She told me that I'm not dull, that I just need faith in myself and to Him and have proper self-discipline. She told me points of view that made me realize that I still have the chance if I do it well. I will never forget what she told me, " don't give up ".
     By then, I realized she's so much of a hero. If she can do all those encouraging statements to me, than she can do it to everyone. She makes students realize that we're really not dull. We just need to work hard and study well. And that's why my teacher, my hero is Mrs. Esmeralda Medija.
