I had one influential teacher called Mrs. Florence Lakra whome we protested to get as our class teacher in 10th grade as we liked her too much in grade 9. She was enchanting orator.

My favorite and most influential teacher was a woman named Mrs. Hallubuk. I had her in ninth grade for English, and I had a really bad attitude, but she saw through me and gave me this huge lecture about how I was wasting my potential always being smart mouthed and sassy. She said she knew I was capable of doing great things in my life, but unless I changed my attitude I would never see it myself. She has absolutely no idea how much her talk meant to me, but it really helped me through some rough decisions and difficult times in my life.

My favorite teacher ever is my 3rd year high school adviser Ms. Joy Perjie.She was really cool, she's smart and she let us say what we want.I mean she let us debate against a topic and let us say our point of view.Well most teacher just talk and talk and never really listen but she did, she treated us equally,we respect her but she never require us to do that.We just did, I guess we respect her because she respect us too!We never felt like we're just a bunch of high school student and she was the teacher...

My favorite teacher was a wonderful lady named Carol Bevan . SHe was incredible. I wanted to be a writer but my mother hated the idea. When I told my teacher she made a deal with me that I would send out 10 short stories and If I got 5 or more rejections she would leave me alone about writing. I got 10 acceptance letters and this became the begining of my writing career. Without her I don't think I would have become the Journalist I am today.

Veneranda Manalo, that's her name... she introduced me to a lot of things i'm interested now, no, she did not made me like them, she gave me the opprtunity to appreciate them and keep them, book reading, stamp collecting, and continuous learning.
