Alice is a student who came to my class last year. Though she has already turned 60, Alice looks so fit and1 with a bright smile and an enthusiastic attitude. I am Alice's teacher in class, but I feel she is my teacher in life.
For my 2-hour class every Saturday morning, Alice has to take a 3-hour round-trip on the road. But she is never2 for class. Alice is very passionate about learning English. She often says, "Don't 3 me as a 60-year-old. I am just a new beginner who wants to learn anything 4 . You know, I am very excited to come to the class!" So I feel a strong sense of5 to make sure what I teach makes sense to her.
Alice came to me with very6 English skills, but she turns out to be a very fast learner because she always puts English7 on a daily basis. I8 her homework before every class. Her homework is usually not what I9 for the class, rather it is something that she10 to put together. She makes various sentences using the important words and phrases she learned from our11 class. I am always12 by the quality of her work.
I feel fortunate to have a student like Alice. She has13 me so much. Our14 is a great learning experience for both of us. Though I have no idea why she learns English, I hope I can help her15 her dream, whatever it is.
