My Great Teacher in Middle School

I will never forget Mr. Amado Escobar; he was the best teacher I had in middle school when I was 13 years old. Mr. Escobar was the instructor for my Computer Application System’s class. I enjoyed his class because he used creative teaching methods and he had patience with all of his students. Besides being a great teacher, Mr. Escobar was also my best friend and whenever I had problems with my computer he would fix my computer. Mr. Escobar was a great mentor who gave me a lot of good personal advices when I was in Middle School. His advise kept me focused and helped me keep school a priority in my life.

I will never forget those amazing days at the end of each year in middle school in Mexico, because Mr. Escobar took us on a field trip every year. The first year in middle school Mr. Escobar took us on a trip to visit a company called Recycle Paper. I remember thinking how incredible recycle paper was since it was my first time in my life to see a recycle paper company. The temperature in the recycled paper room was cold because the company was located among lots of trees. In the company recycle paper room there was many machines where the paper was processed for recycle. Each machine has a different job and each job was equally important to the finishing product. Next to the room where the machines that recycled the paper where located, there was a little gift shop that sold different funny figures made out of the recycled paper that company made which they used as an example of there recycled paper. The gift shop also sold other kinds of things like notebooks, posters and other varieties of papers that came in different kids of colors. After the

    Intro: Imagine a whole forest being cut down just to store our garbage. This can be stopped if we recycle. Deforestation is a major issue today. This is because man is using natural resources to fulfill his needs. The increase of these demands has led to increasing levels of destruction of our natural resources.
