Lauryn Tonou Professor Muriel Lange ENGL 1101 5 September 2012 Practice 2.7: Using description (A teacher, a coach, or a boss) One of my favorite high school teachers was Mrs. Ide. She was my music teacher and the leader of our choir, in which I was a member during high school in France. Mrs. Ide was a little, thin woman with black, short hair.

When we finished studying our parts, we had a "creative evening", where all our families, friends and teachers came and watched our play. Secondly, Mrs. Ide believed in our musical talents. She invested her free time for giving singing lessons after school or during our brakes. She taught us to be self-confident with our voices and how to use different techniques to improve our singing skills. She told us every week, that we all have great talent and it felt really good, that she had such a confidence in our musical abilities. Finally, I can say that Mrs. Ide was the best teacher and she really cared about us. She helped everyone in her class to improve our voices and be more self-confident on stage.
