"The dream begins with a teacher who believes in you, who tugs and pushes and leads
you to the next plateau, sometimes poking you with a sharp stick called "truth." ~Dan
Rather

My best English teacher ever is a woman that has taught me more than just words in a
foreign language ,she is someone who can pass on to her students the desire to know
more and more about what she has learned. Veronica Landazuri is the name of the
teacher who has inspired me in English, since she is so good.
Well, can say that may be her clear pronunciation, wide experience and of course her
sweetness the main reasons that come to my mind now.

n addition, have to say that love her classes because of the dynamism she uses every
time she wants to begin a new topic or a project.
So in my opinion what love the most in her classes is reading. The fact is that it helps me
to active my brain, improve my memory, improve my word understanding and , make me
have more vocabulary to write in a better way.
On the other hand listening is important to me too , to pronounce words in the correct way
for example when have a conversation with people from other countries, or when want
to sing a song listen to it first and is easier for me to remember , so in this way practice
listening, besides the activities that do every time have to work in the book "English in
Mind have text and dialogues that found interesting to discuss in the class.
Another important thig to have a good class is English in Mind i the book use at school, it
has provided me a lot of information, because of the topics it contains , it also brings
characters from the past to the class and teaches principles with interesting tales for
teenagers like me or my partners.
Something love about English in Mind is 'Culture in Mind' sections that give me an insight
into different aspects of culture throughout the English-speaking world and also
Entertaining photostories with everyday English phrases that give me a feel for
contemporary spoken English.
Finally have to say that better than a thousand days of diligent study is one day with a
great teacher, like the one have, but that great teacher needs some tools to accomplish
with her job , English in Mind think is that especial tool she has found to offer a
comprehensive and clear approach to language and skill work.
