The Best Teacher - Level 2

I have had a lot of teachers. 

Some of them were good, and some of them were boring. 
There is one teacher whom I remember very well. 
He is the best teacher that I ever had. 
His name was Mr. Alban. 
He was a history teacher. 
History is not my favorite subject. 
I don't really enjoy history a lot. 
When I was in Mr. Alban's class, he made history seem exciting. 
He was more of an actor than a teacher. 
If he was describing a war, he would make us feel all the emotions that the soldiers and their families would have felt. 
We could almost hear the guns firing and the people shouting. 
He would paint a picture in our minds that was very vivid. 
When I had a history test in his class, I didn't have to study much. 
I would remember every word that he had said. 
I would see him doing the actions that went along with his stories. 
He was very animated. 
He would shout out orders as if he was a general, or he would speak softly and reverently when describing the death of a great hero. 
The most important thing that I learned from Mr. Alban was that I did really like history. 
I just thought that I didn't like it because most people had made it dull by just reading from the textbooks. 
History is not just a series of dates and dull facts. 
History is what really happened. 
History is real life. 
All the historical figures had real families and emotions. 
They weren't just fictional people. 
After I took history from Mr. Alban, I realized that I really did have an interest in it. 
He was my favorite teacher, and I will always be grateful to him for making me aware of just how interesting history really is.
