Personal Experience

Now listen to the sample response. How is it different from yours? What parts of the response can you use in your own? Write down any helpful expressions you hear.

One teacher who has positively impacted my life was my ninth-grade literature teacher, Ms. Murphy.

She helped me to develop a passion for literature.

Before the class, I never thought actively pursuing literature as a course of study.

However, Ms. Murphy’s lectures made literature so much fun that I decided to study literature in college.

Also, Ms. Murphy taught me how to deal with conflicts. Whenever she had a problem, she always handled it rationally rather than losing her temper.

By following her example, I was able to handle conflicts better in my own life.
