Dealing with students with diverse academic backgrounds is an inevitable daily task all the teachers must be faced to. We must therefore be creative enough to cater for all， not only for those students that easily adapt to the teacher’s teaching style. This is where Mr. XXX really stood out of the crowd. Not only was he highly creative in his teaching approaches， but he also cared for all the students. He had a deep understanding of the students’ personal situations and he made a real effort to help them improve. This is to me a real rare quality.
I learned the lesson of the “helping hand” from him， which I put into practice as much as possible with my students. Mr. xxxx was an exceptional student that one sees once in a life time. His mastery of a vast array of subjects is just unbelievable. It almost seems like he does not need to study for a thing and still gets top marks. A lot of students (like myself) were jealous of his natural capabilities， but also motivated by his successes.
In our studies we were in competitions all the time， which was challenging but always fun. I really owe him a lot and I am sure that， wherever he may go， he will continue to inspire people. I wish him all the best for the future.
