Robert enjoys watching football matches. One day, when the class was over, it was already late. He wanted to go home quickly, because there was a football programme on TV at 7:30. To save time, he decided to take a short cut across a building. The wire fence around the building was not very strong, so on his way down, he fell down, landing on a piece of glass. His foot was badly hurt. He took out his scarf and tried to tie it around his foot as tightly as he could. He was not feeling well, but he managed to get over the fence onto the road.
When he got home, his mother was surprised. “Oh, my god. What happened, Robert? Are you all right?” “I’m OK, Mum. Turn on the TV set, I want to know the score of the football match.”

Before I started school, people felt that I was not going to be successful. At the age of four I started speech lessons because I could not speak well enough for anyone to understand me.
The first grade was the worst. I not only had difficulty speaking, but also felt nervous because I couldn’t just learn to read. The second grade was not much better. I still couldn’t read very well. It was in the third grade that a new school was built close to my home. I moved to the new one. However, things were still not much better for me at school and did not get better for the next two years.
Things began to change in the fifth grade. Mrs. Black was my teacher, the nicest one I had ever met. She did not make me feel I was not as good as the others. Instead, she did her best to let me know that I could be whatever I wanted to be. And that is just what I did.
Because of Mrs. Black, I’ve become a teacher myself. For the past 22 years, I have been a fifth grade teacher. I always encourage my students when they meet with difficulties in their lives. I have won many awards up to now, such as Teacher of the Year. I think the award belongs to one fifth grade teacher who believed in me and helped me to be all that I could be.
