(解答例 3)(H. O.)―― Theme 英作文 ――〈答案例 1〉

My favorite one is a teacher of English at my high school. He is especially important tome because he is so smart and often gave us very timely advice.
For one example, when, despite my hard work, my English grade wouldn’t improve as I
wished, I was deeply worried about the way of learning, and right at that time, in class headvised us how to learn English with great efficiency: to thoroughly read English aloud atleast two hours in total on a daily basis. In addition, during the class, as a part of his teaching
methods, pair reading was carried out many times. That advice and his lessons enabled me
to gain every confidence in my ability to learn English.
For another example, he didn’t in the least favor any of his students. Of course, it isabsolutely vital for teachers to treat every student equally, but it’s easier said than done.
Regardless of the student’s grades or behavior, he always tried hard to lead them to become
what they wanted to be, by offering them some helpful and practical hints to the point.
It is the way he talked gently and intelligently that is still vivid in my memory.

My favorite teacher is my Japanese teacher in junior high school and I have two reasons.
First, he loved freedom and wanted us to be free. While he didn't like to control our behavior
by trivial school rules, he seemed sad when we relied too much on rules. He always asked us
to think independently about what we should do and how we should do it.
Second, he valued the precise use of our language. He asked us to express what weintended to say clearly and accurately without being influenced by the atmosphere aroundus. At the same time, he advised us to read several books whose words would encourage us
in the future.
Perhaps we could not understand all of his classes, though we enjoyed them very much.
But as time goes by, I now feel he is the only teacher that has taught us how important both
freedom and language is.

My favorite teacher was a teacher at a prep school who helped me study English for mycollege entrance exams. One of the reasons why he was so important to me is the excellenceof his lessons. His classes were completely different from the old-fashioned classes where we
simply interpreted the sentence structure and made Japanese translations. He always took
a paragraph-by-paragraph approach to the content of English sentences, and not only did heclearly show us the logic behind the sentences, but he also thoroughly trained us on how tograsp such logic. Furthermore, he was full of professional ethics. He corrected the English
compositions of each student in the class, and I strongly felt that he was trying to takeresponsibility for the improvement of his students' English skills. He taught me what itmeans to be responsible as a professional. That is why He is my one and only favorite teacher.
