My idealistic teacher

I had three teachers who have influenced me in my life.

The second grade teacher in elementary school was tough, harsh, and difficult to deal with.
One time, my friends and I were in the playground and forgot to be on time for the next class.
When we went in late, the teacher was mad and told us to go straight to the kindergarten classroom which was next door, saying we are acting like small kids.
We waited outside the two rooms for about 15 minutes when the teacher called us.
She told us that she does not hate us, but simply want us to learn to be diligent and to act older.
And she hugged us.
I still contact her, because I want to be a teacher who are harsh and warm-hearted at the same time.

No one really liked my sixth grader teacher at first because she was harsh and gave us lots of homework. She taught us almost every subject, so she had all the time she needs with us. She gave us quizzes, tests, and projects often and we could not understand why we had to suffer this much. However I realized later how much English I have improved over the past year. I also learned to study by myself and also with groups.
I truly respect her, because I want to be a teacher who could truly teach the students to do the work by themselves.

The third teacher I want to introduce is my science teacher at high school. There was no one who did not like him for he was always smiling, nice, gentle, and had knowledge about almost every area. His courses were hard because I was not interested in science that much, but there are a few of my friends who decided to major in science due to this teacher's impact. He respected his students and encouraged us for what we have done.
The idealistic figure of teacher is someone who truly respects his students and give them all the knowledge he has.
