Teacher that inspired me the most

The teacher that inspired me the most was my high school English teacher Mrs. Williamson. Mrs "Willy" as everyone called her was an amazing teacher. I had for 9th and 11th grade english. Going into high school I was very nervous ( as any freshman would be). I especially feared English because all I could remember about my older sisters thoughts on English was " Be ready to right a ton of papers." But I went into my freshman English class with a positive attitude. From the first day, Mrs. Willy made us freshman feel welcomed. She told us not to be afraid and that she would always be there to help us. Now going into my 11th grade English class I was more excited. But I did have one downfall, In my whole high school career I did not have to work hard for my grades. In 11th grade, Mrs. Willy taught us that college will be very different from high school. She taught me that I was going to actually have to work hard if I wanted a good grade. Mrs. Willy helped me prepare for college and if it were not for her, I wouldn't be the student I am today.
