The time that I was brought out of my shell

When I was in middle school, I was incredibly shy and didn't want to stand up for myself at first. That didn't last more than a quarter and half of the year. One day my English teacher started telling me that you need to stand up for yourself or the bullying will just keep happening. I loved her ever since that day. She helped me to come out of the hiding place I felt like I was in. She's the real reason I want to be a teacher.
In eighth grade, I also had the best math teacher ever. She helped bring me out my shell even more than I was at the beginning of my eight grade year. Then she really was just plain there for me in January of that year. In November, my best friend moved in. Then in January, I learned we couldn't be in math class together any more. I was in absolute tears in her class the day he went to special Ed and she helped me realize it's the best for him. I felt much better which just made my shell break even more.

Now that I'm graduating, I'm going to miss them very much; but I will have them forever in a special place in in my heart. They are truly the best teachers ever. Thanks Mrs. Mattingly and Mrs. Lang.
