there are 15 students. But he has a problem, the students are not motivated to learn English, they
are bored in class and they all say they don't understand English and they only speak to each other
in Spanish. Mr. Smith has tried many methods, among them Grammar-Translation, but there have
been no results. He has asked for your professional support. What method would you advise him
to apply to his students so that they feel motivated and learn English?
