I am very lucky to have a teacher who happens to be my sister. When I was in primary school, I had a difficult time doing mathematics and I often get a maximum of B grade. But when my sister actually made an effort to sit down and guide me through on tackling every mathematics question. I have never gotten below grade A ever since. This has changed my studies and grades ever since. I am lucky that as a teacher she is able to understand me and as a sister she is very close to me. Not everyone can do that and with all my siblings who are elder than me by 20 years and above, I found it really difficult to keep up with my studies as no one was around to help me and I was mostly alone at home. My sister did and still will always find a way to spend time with me and help me through my studies. She is a great teacher and inspiration. Her amazing stories of her funny students and school moments always give me life lessons on how I want to carry my life. I am forever grateful for her.
