MY ENGLISH TEACHER

When I was still a second grade student of my senior high school, I had to solve a very big problem of myself. It was a time when I didn’t have courage to speak English. Actually I was afraid of making mistakes in using vocabulary, pronouncing the English words, and especially using English structure well. Making things worse, I was basically so shy and regarded as a silent girl. I ever said to my friend, Ani, that I didn’t have braveness to speak English because of these factors consequently.

One day, there was a new English teacher in my school. Her name is Mr. Abu. Fortunately, this new English teacher is very caring and patient. He willed to give his hand whenever my classmate and I needed some help to solve our lessons. He said that he allowed his students to play their own cassettes or mobile phone to support their listening to English speaking. Shortly, while I had my classmates taken notes or joined the assignment, they became entertained.

We were to be active participants joining some certain English games, such as scrabble or our favorite one. There was so much fun with a lot of practice time, instead of theory itself. I could gradually change my mood in learning English.

That English teacher was rarely able to boost my spirit to learn English well. His ways teaching his students were very deeply affected. We called him a hero. He motivated us to be an English teacher like him. It is one of my reasons why I have to take English department now.
