Fond memories

Prompt: The Daily Topic: Who taught you the best? Write a memory involving your favorite teacher.

I have never had any favourite teacher but I do remember two teachers from childhood who have been especially nice to me in those growing years.

One was Mrs. N. Sen and the other was Mrs. L. Chandra. I remember Mrs Sen because she gave me a big zero in one of my class tests. When my parents went to find out the reason, she simply said, Payal helped someone else copy from her. She completed her test and then helped another student which was wrong. Though I was innocent, she wanted me to understand that copying and helping someone else copy is wrong. To this day, I remember this incident. I still help friends but yes, not for tests anymore…
 Mrs. L. Chandra was a very sweet person. She helped me when I did not understand anything. Once when I was ill, she was more worried than anyone else. She helped me get home and asked about me from my parents for a very long time till I completely recuperated. She had a heart of gold and was always in reach whenever I needed anyone in school for help.

Though I don’t know where my teachers are now, I do remember them with immense fondness, love and respect.
