A Teacher is known as the person who shows their students the path of life and help us to succeed later on in the future. Coach Sakis Brown is my favorite teacher, as well my soccer coach.  He has the ability to motivate anyone, no matter what they’re going through, he give’s his own time to help them. He is also a great coach, when it comes to the beautiful game of soccer.

I have learned great things with him like being able to believe in myself while playing soccer.  At first, I didn’t have any trust in myself. But Coach Brown is always motivating me. He always tells me “You can do it”.  He pushed me to try my hardest, and he doesn’t accept anything less than my best.  I love soccer, and Coach Brown teaches me how to play it better.

Coach Brown is the type of teacher that is very disciplined and strict towards his team, but I know, this is for a reason. He knows that we’re capable of doing big things.  And the way he treats us,  like if we were his daughter’s makes us feel  confident towards him.  He allows his team to joke around with him, and in turn we are comfortable seeking his advice, confiding our worries.  We know he is looking out for us.  Being able to trust a teacher, someone outside of home is a good thing.  It’s good to see the other points of view.  I think Coach Brown is a great person to trust.

Since Coach Brown  became the Women’s Soccer coach, our team is more competitive when we play, and closer to each other off the field.

Soccer season is my favorite time of the year. And this year, my season is filled with laughs, love and probably even tears. There are teachers who help a person’s life for the better, and Coach Brown is one of them.coach brown 2
