¿Who was my best teacher?

I remember differents teachers but the best was my english teacher Janetth Mina. I worked with her in the graders 9th - 1oth and 11th graders.
Always I had liked English it was my favorite subject in the school. I had many english teachers that they did the subject something difficult however I had the skills to understand them.

Their strategies and methodologies always were the same " Open your book page __ and please translate into spanish all text and after answer the questions". During two hours the students looked for the words in a dictionary.

Janeth tought english in a different form. She used activities that motivated the students and the classes were interesting her task were differents you as student didn`t lern by heart.

Janneth told us the need to learn english fourteen years ago.

I didn`t think that I would be a teacher because my big dream was be a Hotel managment, but now I love my profession as an english teacher.

Hi David,
I see the Grammar Translation method is still being used in our schools. A pity! Especially with all kinds of tools and teaching strategies that can be used to make classes more appealing to our students.
