A teacher I'll never forget.


.




The last semester, I had a professor called Mr aspee.
He is the phonetics professor at university, he is very strict. In my first year at university
I failed phonetics with the other professor, so the next year the director of my career changed to the professor for Mr aspee. I thought that It was better, 'cause I really don’t like the other teacher. In my first class with him, I realized that the phonetics subject could be a good thing but in the other hand could be very complicated to me.

I was very unconfident with my English and he made me feel worst with it.
While the days went on, I don’t want to arrive the day that I`ll have a class with him,
'cause he always looked at me with his deep eyes and I felt bad…

Sometimes, he asked for something and I couldn’t spoke, I looked him with fear,'cause every word I said It was wrong for him. So, for me I think it was a good and a bad experience, he is very intelligent and the way how he teach is amazing, but I don’t know why, I felt so bad in his classes. He changed my way to learn. In the last oral test, I was studying all night before, it was the last test to finish the subject, so I didn’t want fail. Of course, can you imagine failed the last test with him and have to prepare yourself to see him in the next year again?, no way.

Well in this test that I had been studying a lot, It was not bad, but not good. I had to tell about a story from a paper that he gave us in classes. I started to spoke, with fear, I said everything that he wanted. At the end of the test he looked at me and said to me “ why are you studying English?...
I felt so bad and I said, cause I really like English and I know that my fluency is not good and maybe my pronunciation, but I can improve it. He laughed and said ok, Let’s hope you can improve your english.

I passed the subject and sometimes I thought, he was very strict and he didn’t make me feel good in his classes, but I learnt a lot , By the way I could improve my English and know I feel more confident with me than the first semester.

I don’t hate him, but I always remember a little bit from him as
“Don’t give up”
