My Favorite Teacher
I would rather sit for four hours in the lecture hall listening to my philosophy teacher than spend the whole day gossiping with my peers. I prefer addressing my problems to him; he has the best tactics to counter my predicaments. He is well-learned, decently dressed and, among all, a great professor. My teacher is my role model. I had a tendency to believe that education was all what I needed, but paying attention to what he told us in class proved me wrong. I remember the first story he gave us in class; it was about the “educated fools”; I like naming it “educated illiterate”. He talked about how boastful some educated people may be, yet they never produce anything substantial. The first his lecture that we attended was the best form orientation in my college life. I remember him saying that “education is manifested by who you are, what you think you are and what you discharge to the society”. The philosophy lecturer is my favorite teacher since he totally changed my perspective towards life, morals and education through his charismatic and effective styles in associating his real teaching with the current issues affecting people.
My philosophy teacher led to my paradigm shift towards success. He uses different analogies and stories to drive his point home. He talks of morals, he tells us about real life situations. As a philosophy teacher, he likes appreciating different disciplines within the curriculum. He is able to change one attitude towards a career. He may act in a comical way, but he is very strict when it comes to education. The way he praises the benefits of education encourages me to be a good performer in life. He is always punctual in class. I like his slogan “mission first”; whenever my classmates are late for class, the first question he will ask them is mission. He insists on first things first. Apart from being a lecturer, he is a consultant and a motivation speaker. It was an obvious question asked by many of my peers on how he manages all the tasks. He insists on time management. He once told me that we all have enough time, but the difference is how we utilize this resource.
My favorite lecturer’s unique style of teaching pleased everybody, especially those willing to excel in life careers. My teacher tries to create networks between the class and the industry. By doing so, he lets his students face the real world and apply the knowledge learnt in class in real life situations (Wilkins 602). I can associate the advancement in my career with his exemplary efforts of linking us, students, with the companies. As a result, we have acquired great skills. He often tells us about his success and how he managed to achieve it. He talks about great people such as scientist, investors, and businessmen among others. He encourages everybody. He is a daily reminder. He echoes the greatest words of people who made a difference in society.
My teacher’s life story changed my mentality concerning life appreciation. He insisted that no extra effort goes unrewarded. His story is so encouraging. He was not raised ...
