Part 2 Answer:
§ ‘I remember a teacher I had at primary school who was wonderful. From the first day she was friendly and kind towards the students, who were eight years old. But she was also strict. I mean, on the first day, she took out this old fashioned strap and banged it on the desk and we all got such a fright, but she was just trying to show us she was in control. She wasn't really that scary although she was quite short and she spoke in a loud voice. Everybody called her Mrs T.’
§ ‘She taught us for every subject, so she taught us English, maths, writing, and actually I can't remember what else!’
§ ‘I guess what I used to enjoy most about her classes was her personality and the fact that she cared about all of her students, even the naughty ones. I remember her daughter lived in America and she used to send over American sweets and chewing gum for Mrs T to give to the good students. All the students tried to be really good to get that reward!’
§ ‘I particularly remember my teacher, Mrs T, because she was so kind, helpful and patient. I was very young and she was like a mother to me, gentle but strict at the same time.’
