The Best Teacher When I Was a student

People have their own memorable moment in their life. it can be with their friends, family or also can be some place. In this paper, I'm going to talk about my best teacher who gave me a memorable teaching in my life. My teacher was called Kang Seung Sam. Mrs.Kang has a rough and powerful voice like a male teacher. She has charismatic readership. When i'm school children she taught me English 2 hour 3 times in the weekdays. her teaching was way too pressure to children. it's because for giving motivation to learn English to children as she said. It's was boring to me at that time but i can tell really successful method to learn English. Just memorizing 50 English sentences is not easy to anyone but cause of her teaching, I can using these in real situation properly. so her teaching was work on me. the second reason of why her class was successful is give me a chance to "open the mouse and speak out". For the Beginner who don't know importance of productive skills when they learn target language it doesn't easy to say something in other languages. Mrs.Kang knew this and make children to write and speak at the same time when they memorize 50 sentences. so Ss could get ready to speak. last reason is proper promotion of competitive spirit. she prized certificate and give a plus point on the grade if student could write and speak 50 sentences all. so Ss does it hardly without complaint.

Mrs.Kang was an enabler, because she make me to write a English diary each day. every day should talk about what i learned today, key point about teacher said on my diary. if the class doesn't have that day then focus on the what i felt that day. At first week, It doesn't easy to write down in other language so Ss given handout about useful daily expression. it make Ss get more creative themselves every day. she checked and corrected accuracy, grammar and vocabulary every Friday. for that reason, Ss can check their level of language each week through the diary.

Mrs.Kang was an effective teacher when she make me speak the sentence loudly so that way encourage Ss to using Integrated-skill approach during the class. when i'm done with speak the sentence, Mrs.Kang asked the Ss what i say and what's that mean then Ss answered these in English. Each students switch the role and do same thing. she believe speaking and writing are the best way to learn target language i think.

Considering how i learned so much, i think Mrs.Kang seemed to understand the integrated-skill approach. Ss are encouraged writing and speaking at the same time when they learn the target language. so, Ss could get memorize sentences faster and pronounce also better. but if Ss have problem with pronunciation or hard to read texts, Mrs.Kang helped to fix it up. the important thing is she tried to make up class and group Ss to do activities but she never ran the whole thing during the class so that way Ss participate actives by themselves and bring creative ideas each sS have. I think this one is really good both side between children and teacher. because teacher can attract voluntary participation from sS and Ss can more focus on their work spontaneously.

so as i have just talked above, i learned so much things from my best teacher when i was a student. Mrs.Kang was enabler because she make me do something creative by myself in target language such as writing diary in English every day. so i think she's the effective teacher when she let me integrated skills approach during class. To use that, i do Writing and speaking at the same time as she said. With her teaching of integrated skill approach, i could use 50 sentences in real situation properly even now. Finally, at conclusion, i decided to follow the way same she did to me when i became the teacher. even she was a bit of feel pressure to Ss but because of this, i could remember 50 sentences until adult and use that like the hotel in abroad or talk with foreigner in the business. For me, feel Ss pressure can be just a one way of motivation. course, i complement the defect of that if i need to. As she taught me, i learned very well the integrated skill approach so make up the plan how to using Writing, Speaking, Reading and Listening for Ss in my class someday. that's why i want to teach as Mrs.Kang did. Thanks for with me until this paragraph in this paper.
