Greetings,

Thank you so much for participating in the contest.

I truly enjoyed reading your school life memories. The way you described walking to school on muddy village roads with your shoes in your hands reflects the real struggle of rural students during the rainy season in our country. Despite those hardships, it clearly shows how eager and determined students are to attend school, which I found very touching.

Your mathematics teacher appeared quite strict to me, but at the same time, I believe that such strictness often teaches us discipline and responsibility. Many of the values we carry into adulthood are shaped by these lessons during school life.

As a student, the way you expressed fear, joy, and excitement deeply resonated with me because school life is truly a mix of all these emotions. Doing homework out of fear of punishment brought back many memories from my own childhood. Waiting for exam results and enjoying school holidays are also parts of school life, and you described them beautifully.

I was especially inspired by the teacher who continued teaching multiple subjects despite the shortage of teachers. He was truly an ideal teacher who never allowed his students to fall behind. For him, teaching was a responsibility he never stepped away from, and that dedication deserves great respect.

In my opinion, the experience of creating a flower garden, although not a book-based lesson, was an important part of practical learning. Through this activity, students learn how to plant trees, build fences, and care for plants. Such tasks help develop hard work, confidence, patience, responsibility, and teamwork, values that play a vital role in shaping a student’s character. Your post beautifully tells how school life contributed to building the person you are today.
