I’ll talk about my high school teacher, Mr. Hama. He was my Japanese teacher for three years. I respect him, because he has special personalities. Before the story begin, I’ll introduce his profile. He is 42 years old, and he has taught Japanese for 25 years. He is married, and he has one daughter. So, he is not only a great teacher, but also he is great father. I think it is so difficult to be both, but he could this, because he made a lot of efforts. There is a special class in my high school. What is called it was an extracurricular class. It was held at 7:00 a.m. Everyone were getting up at about 5:30 a.m., so many people were feeling exhausted. One day, I was late for the class. According to my friend, my classmates also lacked a mind to study. So, Mr. Hama was angry, and shouted “Nothing I don’t want to teach you!!” He went to a staff room never to return. After I hear this story, I went apologizing to him, and I and he met. I said “I’m sorry for be late your class.” He said “ You don’t know anything that how I cost my family!!” I was so sorry, and I realized that even he sacrificed his family, he did his best for us. Also, I realized that he made more effort than we expected. Now, I think he is great person I had ever met before. He was always thinking us, and he was always doing his best teaching to us. I think that it is so hard to make a lot of effort toward anyone. That’s why I respect him very much. I want to see him.

I think my sister Haruka is so stubborn, because she turns a deaf ear to someone’s opinion. Sometimes, we have a quarrel about little things. For example first, we have a quarrel about how to fold clothes, my family think towels should be folded into four, but she thinks towels should be folded into three. She says towels I folded are more comfortable than towels we folded to use. However towels she folded don’t fit our shelf. I think she should listen our advice, but she will answer only “I got it.” Although she turns a deaf ear to someone’s opinion, we excuse because we think she has ideas. Maybe it is useful for her to fold into three. She is so stubborn, and she turns a deaf eae to someone's opinion, but I think it is not bad. Of course, sometimes I feel troublesome feeling, but the personality is a strong point for her. Since she is stubborn, even if she has a disagreeable thing, she does not give up easily. I think it is her's good point. 

Next, I’ll talk about my friend, Saki. She has so delicate sensibility. She often says “ I don’t like me”, and I say “Why?”, she answered “Because I can’t do anything well”. If she couldn’t do something, she would disappoint herself. I think her goal is too high to achieve by herself. So, I think she is suffered by it, so she can’t achieve, and she depress. But I think it is not bad, because she has goal, and she does harder to achieve it. I think the reason why she has her goal which is too high to achieve herself is she does harder than other people. Although she has the heart which gets damaged easily, she always regained her heart by herself, and she always aims at the top. I think she is strong.
