• Student/teacher relation: In third grade my teacher helped me much with my math. She kept my interested in it and math ended up being my favorite subject for the rest of my life.
• Making things interesting: My forth grade teacher knew how to get her students involve in any of the subjects. She was very good at setting up different games that helped us learn more about History, English, science and math. She also rewarded us when we got something correct.
• Leadership: My fifth grade teacher was a leader. We were like her troops and she would direct us in the right direction when we needed it. Like when I was having trouble with grammar she would try to get me back on track and let me discover the right way instead of just telling me the right way.
• Poverty: Again my fifth grade teacher. In Buxton, ME there isn’t a lot of diversity but we did have and African American in my fifth grade class. The beauty about my teacher was that she didn’t see a color difference all see saw was another student that was in her class.
• Motivating underachievers: believe it or not my home base teacher in high school was the biggest motivator of under achievers. He kept assignments simple but very educational. He was a teacher that made people and his student laugh and kept them working.

Your categories are interesting. They are all mentioned in MEL but are not necessarily the 9 main components. 3/5. -1 for content and -1 for errors in mechanics of writing: "forth grade" should be "fourth grade"; "students involve in any of the subjects" should be "involved"; "we did have and African American" should be "an"; "his student laugh" should be "his students laugh".
