Dear Miss Hooper,
I'm writing to thank you for your help this year．There were lots of subjects(主题)in class，but you made sure that I could understand every one．To tell the truth, you're the best teacher I've met．You explain things so clearly, and are also so kind．I really enjoyed every minute of your class．
There were so many best parts this gear．Whatever the subject， you made it fun and interesting to everyone．All of your students found learning new things so easy because of you．I really believe you have a great teaching skill，You should be very proud(自豪的)of the way that you help children learn．It is because of you that I've decided to become a teacher when I grow up．
I have mixed feelings about school next year．I'm sad that you won't be my teacher anymore．However, I'm happy that other children will get to share your knowledge(学问)．I'm sure that they'll thank you for your good work．
I didn't enjoy school much before this year．I was new to the school this year．At my old school, I found learning quite difficult．The last nine months have changed all of that．I'm now confident(自信的) and looking forward to the next school year．
Thank you once again for all of your help．You are really a great teacher and you've helped me greatly．I hope that we can share the same classroom again one day．
Yours，
Jacob Maclean
