//Part 3. Teacher interview//

Teacher interview paragraph- Mr. Gould Mr. Gould is both a funny and enthusiastic math teacher who has been in SAS for 4 years. His favorite movie is king’s speech and his favorite sport is soccer. Mr. Gould has been teaching for so many years that he couldn’t count that high. His goal is not only teaching student mathematic skills, but also teaches student how to become a more powerful learner. He sponsors the 30 hours famine, and he encourages students to attend. Mr. Gould gave me several advises of how to become a successful student in SAS, he said that one of the most important thing is to become very active and get involved in classes, sports and clubs. After this interview, I not only gained knowledge about SAS, but also realized how a nice teacher Mr. Gould is. Whenever I stopped talking, he would smile at me and waited patiently until I figured out what I was going to say; whenever I spoke too softly, he would lean forward and listen to me more carefully. His teaching attitude, the way he talked with his students, his smiling face, which you could always see, makes him a popular teacher. I really enjoyed this interview.
