My 9th grade math teacher

In 9th grade I was in such a good math class. I was taking Algebra 1A. Math has always been a good subject for me. I’ve always loved math all my life, from when I first started school. My math teachers name was Mr. Luft, he was such a funny and enthusiastic guy that it made class fun and I always looked forward to it. I always dreaded getting up for school but when I remembered math class it motivated me to get up and go to school. In this class I met my best friend Nicole. I and she are not best friends anymore but we were best friends for a long time. Mr. Luft was such a cool and outgoing teacher but he also was very mean when it came to doing your work and doing well in his class. He always used to say that we can have fun in class and I’ll let you guys be free to talk when there is group work or extra time at the end of class but I will not tolerate the talking and fooling around when we are doing lessons and taking tests. No matter what type of help you needed he was always willing to help you out with whatever the case was. Sometimes I had trouble with questions and he would always sit me down and talk me through it until I understood exactly what I was doing. A lot of math teachers I’ve had throughout the years didn’t always do that. That class was always so much fun to go to. Some days when we didn’t have a lot to do we would play math games or we were able to socialize with our friends. Nicole and I always wanted to do fun things and we always hyped everybody up in the class to make it fun and worth going to. One day we had this student teacher come in and he was so cute! Nicole and I fell in love with him and then that made us want to come to class even more. He was so nice and he was just like Mr. Luft it was kind of scary. He was just a student teacher learning to be a new teacher at any schools but he was doing such a good job. Nicole and I would always flirt with him and everybody in the class knew Nicole and I loved him. He always helped out the students that were struggling and needed extra help. Both Mr. Luft and the student teacher were always open to extra help after class or after school and I always took advantage of that whenever I needed help. The class was so motivating to me that it made me get really good grades and I ended up getting a grade in the 90s because of how much I applied myself.  I think with the help of having really good math teachers it benefits you in the end to get really good grades in math class!
