To the following teachers:

Ms Tan (Pri Sch)
Ms Tan (Sec Sch)
Ms Tan (Poly)

All these Ms Tans have helped me in alot of ways, the primary school one gave me a chance to become monitor in class and helped me alot in my school work. As my form teacher she believed in me when others look down on our class as we are 6H (best class is A, and of coz the worse, us H). She encouraged the class alot and after our exams she treat us to eat at kenny rogers no matter what kind of result we got.

Ms Tan from sec school is the most fierce and stern of all, becoz of this alot of students are scared of her, but she is the one willing to stay back at recess and after school to give extra lessons to students who were weak in english. I can still remember the 1st assignment i did for her i got 3/21. She trash me for that. After that every assignment i work very hard and with her advice i gradually improve slowly from c6, b3, and finally o levels i got an A2. On the day when i collected my o level results, i was so happy and when i turn around i saw ms tan standing behind me, she saw my A2 and smiled. Yet dat day someone actually told me that i got A2 becoz i was born naturally good in english. Like someone good in english will get 3/21. If i was good in it naturally, i would not have improved, i would have just one shot get A2. I am never good in english, not now too.

And of coz Ms Tan from poly, where most teachers in poly forgot who i am after i left, Ms Tan continued to e-mail me until now. When i was having problems doing my final year filming project, i sent an e-mail to some lecturers to help me. The only person who replied is Ms Tan. She did all she can to help me, giving me her students' numbers, and even giving me an option that if there is no one else i could use i can use her husband as one of my cast. Which teacher will actually do until this stage to help a student? And of coz she is my IS teacher that taught me on report writing so when she read the e-mail i sent to her calling for help, she complemented on my letter that i have not forgotten all the things that she thought me. I was like, of coz not, u are a gd teacher, so everything u teach, i will remember.

Because of all the above Ms Tans, i found myself liking english, liking to write more and more nowadays. I dun fear english and writing anymore, they gave me a confidence i never had. All 3 Ms Tans have different personalities, but in one way or another they helped students to improve in their lives. This kind of teacher, seriously, where to find.

Thanks and Happy Teachers Day!
