at the school，she made my time there much more pleasant. I immediately began to like her. She was really funny and I knew that she liked me. She made learning fun. I remember one day for Christmas holidays，she taught us how to make ornaments (装饰物) from eggs. My parents still have some of the ornaments I made.

　　 She made me leader for many group projects and that made me feel special. I think that would make any child feel special，especially when a child is in a new place with no friends. She made me want to be like that. Not to pick a "favourite" student，but to make every student feel that they are special. That year，I received the Presidential Academic Award (美国总统学术奖). I was really proud and so were my parents.

　　 Looking back at it，I think the reason why I did so well was that I felt important. Students do better when they feel like they are important or loved. Mrs Green always gets to know her students and forms personal relationships with them，which I will try to do some day. I just hope that there will be a student who finds me to their favourite teacher as I found her to be mine.
