范文:Thank you , my teacher-Mr Zhang
We will leave school in 4 weeks. Here I'd like to say “thank you” to my maths teacher, Mr Zhang from the bottom of my heart. In my eyes, you are the best teacher I have ever met. I still remember clearly when you taught us how to learn maths well. You always showed various ways to help us to solve the same maths problem. Once, I failed to pass an exam and I was sad about it. You noticed my trouble problem anda came to cheer me up. you taught me patiently just like my mother. With your help, I have mde great progress in maths. And now, it is still one of my best subjects.
Thank you, my dear teacher. You are like the candle lighting my future in my life. I will work harder and try my best to do better in the future.
