My Turning Point - By Hyun

I thought about a major turning point in my life. I asked myself what moment was the most impressive during my life. Whenever I review my past, one man comes into my mind, my class teacher when I was in the third grade of middle school.

When I was a middle school student, I was a trouble maker. I was a tall and big guy compared to my other classmates. I often fought with other students and I used to bully them. I know that it is so mean. After growing up, I regretted about it a lot. I should not have bothered them. It was that year in middle school that I met him as a teacher and student. He was already well known teacher in our school because he was very strict. Almost all people were afraid of him. Especially, the stick he usually took, made us dread him. He was really strong. He taught physical education. I was scared and intimidated, when I found out that he was supposed to be my teacher. I didn 't want to make any problems with him because his physical punishment was really painful.

But, My bad habit had not changed. One day, my friend who usually hanged out with me asked me to gambling. I often used to gamble in school before. We had a watchman to lookout whether teacher was coming or not. But our watchman was so stupid. We were found out by teacher. I thought I would be suspended, but he didn’t take me to the teacher’s room for suspend. He started to hit us by using, not only a stick, but also another objects, in front of our classmates. It was so painful that I couldn 't endure it. I thought I would rather be suspended than be beaten continuously. After this, I became really afraid of him.

He made me study hard. Because he hits me for every mark that my exam score went down. I should have studied to be free from physical punishment. Whenever he had an errands. He forced me to do his errands. While I was in his class. I couldn't be free of him.

After the time that I had stayed with him passed by, I should make a decision to entrance into high school. He suggested me to go high school where located in big city. I accepted his proposal. And I made a decision to go high school located in Seoul. It was a very nice choice, I could get more opportunity to experienced new thing and met new people. During my high school days. Sometimes I missed him. Whenever I was getting to be lazy and trouble maker, I thought him. I 'm sure that meeting him in middle school days must be the turningpoint in my life.
