Thank you teachers!

Today i had my last class in 3rd year, or in my 6th semester of medical course. Exams are just around the corner, starting from next Tuesday.

Anyway, time to recall some teachers who had great influences on me....

1. Doctor Shulpekova. Y. A.

She's my teacher for subject "internal disease". Undoubtedly, she's our favourite teacher of all time, and we love her so much. We just love her. I think everybody loves her.

She always put herself second, third, fourth or so, after medicine, patients, and students. She never put herself in the first place. She's ready to sacrifice herself for others. She's like a candle which burns herself, just to lighten the darkness, to warm the coldness.

When we don't know how to answer some of her questions, she never blame us nor scold us. She always say, "it's ok, we'll revise the knowledge again and again. I understand students are very busy with so many subjects."

I never see she uses a negative word. She never say 'this is bad", but instead, she says we can do better.

Sometimes, she was on duty/on call, and we had class the next day. However, she tried to show us how energetic she was, she never said she was tired , though those red eyes revealed her secrets.

"very good. I can see group 2 is excellent. I can see future excellent doctors...." All the compliments she gave us, i felt a bit 'shy' since i don't think i am that good, and I don't usually force myself to study hard, and to be honest, i even used the time to study other stuff, rather than spending on revising her homework. I'm sorry :D But i will promise i'll study hard for this coming final exams.

I really feel reluctant to neglect her. She is just too nice.

Thank you teacher. You left footprints in my life. I really appreciate you , and i will never forget you. Medicine is hard, but with your encouragement, it's not so hard.

2. Elena Glebovna

She's my Russian language teacher, the best Russian language teacher ever through out these 3 years. Our class was always fulled of laughters. She told great jokes.

She always say that , she will never let her daughter to study in such a faraway country. Once, her daughter went to London with a school trip, just for 2 weeks. But she had been worrying of her daughter all the while.

That's why, just like a mother, she treats us like her kids.

3. N. G. Bondarchuk

She's one of the smartest person i have ever seen. I was amazed that she could do oral tests with students will marking papers and supervise students. Amazing. Wonder how she is so multi-task-taker.

It was this story that made I admire her. Once, a student didn't prepare well for the exams. She insisted not to pass the student, "As a doctor, these are some of the basic knowledge you should have. Please prepare well , and come again." She thought of the student's future, as well as the lives of patients.

In Russia, students who sit for the exams late will be charged, as they will consume teachers' "extra time". She usually give chances to students, or at least a certain period to clear the exams. She doesn't mind not being paid to spend extra time to have oral tests with the students, but she wants the students to study well.

Thank you teachers! Thank you for everything, you don't just provide me medical knowledge, but your attitudes, are what i admired you all the most.

All the best. God bless you all.
