INSPIRE TEACHERS!!..WHAT A GREAT REMEMBERS!

Teachers...yes they are three.I going to start remembering my Spanish teacher from high school, she made me love the books specially the literature. She was dynamic, and a good poetry reader,that's why I enjoy reading Borges and Bennedetti. She was always showing her interest for reading about colombian autors, but the specially way to make students involve in reading activities was throught acting the stories roles, the only bad thing was I had classes with her the last year of my high school, It would be great to have a long process learning or enjoying literature at this way.The others two teacher were from Univalle one of them is still teaching there, he has an excellent way to teach American literature, he makes students like writting 'cause he enjoies reading and writting about every single book he has read, so through this example students learn and catching this actitude, also he applies a communicative way in his classes, so everybody participates and talk about the book teacher's homework, some times he does debates, plenary,expositions, or just shows a movie about the book. I think He is one of the best teacher I HAVE HAD EVER together to another who is not at the university now, I really don't know anything about him, just I want to express even he was an older man, he showed an a positive energy during the English classes, he always took to the classroom a guitar for singing songs, I remembered "yesterday" by Beathles. he did different funny activities each class and not just one, many activities such as puzzles, vocabulary competition on the board, role plays, etc..which we enjoyed a lot and the time went so fast every friday night... you know Friday night at Univalle while I was studying was music and beer... at the beggining of the English 6 or 7level,we didn't want to go to the class, however at the end of the semester we did't want to finish.....what a great class or what a great way to enjoy English lerning, so even if you're teaching for adolescents you can apply funny activities in the classes. My three inspire teachers...Nancy Peña Spanish teacher from Normal Dptal School, Timothy Keplee and Frank Rutter both from Univalle.
