 The best teachers for me
In the past thirteen years of my schooling, I have encountered so many types of teachers. And
to fullest of my ability to know their style of teaching and handling students, there are
only few that impressed me and really bring out the best in me.

I will never forget my teacher in my high school days. She is Ms. Gemma Bungubung. She
always states her points clearly and makes sure that all her students learned what she
discussed. She respects you the way you respect her. For me she is the best teacher
until I went into college and met this teacher named Mr. Romulo Ignacio. Right on the
very first day I met him I was amazed with the way he talks. As I have heared some of
his beliefs in life, I said to my self” this is the person that I want to be”. Very calm,
composed even in great emotions, knows the purpose of his doings, with the great
sense of humor, a man of substance and a person who gains respect not by his age or
profession but with the “being” that he has.

If I am going to compare Mr. Ignacio with Ms.Bungubong,I can say that both of them already
know their purpose in life. Ms.Bungubong like Mr.Romulo knows how to give respect
to their students. Mr. Ignacio is similar to Ms. Bungubong who knows how to break
the ice in the classroom. But there are also differences between them that made me
see in Mr.Romulo a better teacher than Ms.Bungubong sometimes uses sensible
words beyond the reach of what she’s doing making some of her words questionable
unlike Mr.Ignacio who just says words of wisdom that he himself already proved true
based from his experiences Ms. Bungubong’s way of giving respect to her students
sometimes lose her image of authority while Mr. Ignacio keeps the look of the boss
even when he’s joking in class.

I know every person has his or her own weaknesses but if ever the time comes that I see one
of Mr. ignacio’s, it will just show me the human in him and prove the possibility that I
can be like him, My favorite teacher.
Explanation:

The Best Teachers for me is one of the example of writing paragraphs using description as
you read, the student is describing the way his or her teacher teach them and
at the same time student is also comparing the similarities of both teachers.
This type of description is informative or objective, because the statement that
written are purely facts.
