Toby, the legend

This is a short essay that one of my friend's students wrote, when they had to write about their heros.

.

It reads:
Today, I`d like to write about my hero. My hero is Mr. Toby. I have two reasons.
First, he was my ALT when I was junior high school student. At first, I didn`t like english. One day, he talked to me in English. I was very upset. Then He was kind to me. I could feel relieved very much. I became liked english little by little.
Second, I want to be a Japanese teacher for foreign children, because He is admired by me. He taught me the charm of english. I want to be like him!! He gave me a wonderful dream.
