It might come across as you trying really hard to stand out or make them fall in love with you, and because of that it might fall flat. I suggest making it more serious (cut the humor-- what’s funny to a teenager isn’t funny to an adult who has to read 50 more essays) while still keeping the personality; make it seem like you talking to your favorite teacher, not your best friend.
