bell hooks in "Teaching to Transgress" share her thoughts with us on the value of learning with passion which in itselfs says almost everything about be awere of your own process of learning and forget about the judgemental thoughts by developing your own way of staying motivated.

Therefore, it's elementary to take #advantage from each topic that we've learning by creating circumstances where you are anable to practice in the real world, considering that amount of words would be empty if we don't put them in a context.


Over the past year I've been #learning so many things from my studants. Teaching is a journey of being kind, empathetic and a believer. On the other hand, it's essential to push them to think this new struture of processing the world, less in terms of grammar and more regard to the culture.


For instance, in the very first class I use to ask them "Why do you want to learn English?". After each particular #story sharing I use to invite them by conclusion: "Are you ready to be a English speaker?"


My heart beats even faster when I remember Pamela saying "Monique, my listening is getting so much better when I listen English" or Glaucia's words: "I saw a post on the #LinkedIn and I understood everything" or lastly when I'm seen Teresa having a correctly pronunciation. Those are just a few of the many other exemples of improvement that I have been #following so far.


Finally I would say that English won't wait until you feel ready. However, once you find a place where you feel #belong, you will learn the most spoken language in the world with more confidence to practice it.
