My Teacher, My Hero

My Teacher, My Hero

            Each and every one of us has a favorite hero. But, what comes to your mind when you hear the word hero? Of course, when we heard about heroes, we usually think of the characters on TV, like Superman, Spiderman and many more. What is a hero for you? What we usually know about heroes today are those who have superpowers and those who are supernatural beings. They can fly or can run as fast as they can. For me, heroes are not only those who have superpowers. To become a hero doesn’t require any supernatural powers. To help or to save someone is enough to be a hero. To die for your country is the greatest sacrifice of a hero. We do have our own life and have our own hero in our life.

            I only have three great heroes in life. Well, of course, the first one is God, and then my parents and the third are my teachers. Although my teachers are my third hero, they are all equal when it comes to my heart. I love them both. My teacher is a hero to me because they can teach me right from wrong. They even teach me how to have a positive outlook in life, to be optimistic. They are kind, and help me cope with my problems. They give advices to me which I could use in my everyday life. These are only three of the thousands of characters that my teachers have similar to that of a hero. All those characters that my teachers have will guide me to become a better person, so I like all their qualities. For me, all the teachers are equal because I know they love their jobs and also they love their students.

            I have an experience that I will share. This is an experience between me and my teachers. I was in grade, my teacher is very strict. Her name is Mrs. Margarita Tarog. My classmates and I were afraid of her, because every time we make an error or become naughty, she will scold us and let us go to the front and sit on the air with our hands forward. Although, she’s like that to us I can see that deep inside, she has the quality of a hero. She’s kind. She taught us many things, that until now, I can still remember.

            We must not take for granted our teachers. They can help us to be more mature. Let us love and also care for our teachers. WE must learn to say thank you to them. Teachers should also love their students. I never forget all my teachers because I love them. All I can say is, my teacher is my hero.
