The best teachers are the ones that can managed to get you to learn enough about a subject that you don't, or didn't even particular care about. We had a brilliant history teacher from Belfast. I already liked history anyway, but we were in our last 2 (I think ?) years before our exams so there were 2 defined courses set out.. one was Medicine Through Time and the other was The American West. Now I had no particular interest in either of those subjects but his teaching ability was so good that he could take a classroom of disinterested kids (and kids who weren't that bright or good at paying attention) and make them interested. He could pick pretty much anyone at random, ask them a question and they'd be able to answer. And this would include the sorts of kids that would have trouble spelling their own name. The dude was inspiring and that was the key. He made it interesting. I sincerely hope he still teaches or is doing well in whatever he does because he was great. This is a beautiful story. I really admire to those teachers who love what they do and had the power to make everybody feel interested in what he is teaching. I didn't have too many, but I had some special ones, mostly when I was at the University. The one that taught Semiology was amazing, he made me feel very interested on it, and I started to read extra books and some films. -------------------- My lessons
