Community helper I chose: my teacher

Mi maestra, (insert her name) es un gran ejemplo de un ayudante de la comunidad. Ella ensena a muchos ninos lecciones muy importantes. Ella es muy simpatica, comica, y inteligente. Le gusta ver a los estudiantes sacar buenas notas. No le gusta ver a los estudientes sacar malas notas. Creo que ella es una gran maestra y es muy buena en su trabaja.

In english, this says: My teacher (insert her name) is a great example of a community helper. She teaches students very important lessons. She is very nice, funny, and smart. She likes to see students get good grades. She does not like to see students get bad grades. I think she is a great teacher and is very good at her job.

If you use this example and the teacher you are talking about is male, make sure you change the words to have a male ending and not a female ending.
