Question

Describe a lesson that you remember well

Answer 1

So when it comes to this topic, which is about one of the most memorable lessons that I used to have, the first thing that just pops up in my mind at the present is my very first lesson about pronunciation. If I am not mistaken, the time I joined this class was about four months ago; I guess because I do not remember the exact time clearly. It was the very first class about IELTS after a long time, and I had ignored my study.

A little bit about myself, I have to admit that I was not confident much about my speaking skill because I was evaluated as a boy with no talent in English. In the first class, the teacher gave us some words and asked us to pronounce those. At first, everyone thought it would be a piece of cake since they were all the words we use every day, like “women or island” and something like that. But when he said we mispronounced all of that, I was kinda surprised since I did not expect that I had pronounced them wrong every day. From that moment, my level of confidence kept decreasing.

Luckily, it was just a small test to show our ability at that time. Then, the teacher started his lesson with some jokes or tips; these ways made me can even memorise more quickly and effectively. It was a kinda unique and novel way for me to practice speaking, so his first lesson was so intriguing for me. Then,  I was all ears and paid all attention throughout the lesson. After that lesson, I could gain back my confidence so that I could be fully equipped with all the necessary skills in the first class.

Thanks to all his feedback about my basic mistakes that day, I can change my mindset about pronunciation. And now, I am here with my high level of confidence and a well-prepared knowledge, I hope that I still have a positive impression on you.

 

Answer 2

If I’m to talk about a lesson that I remember well, I’ll definitely pick the computer science lesson where I got to use a PC for the first time in my life. I was 10 years old, and at the time, the computer was seldom ever seen in Vietnamese households. I think it was only something your family would have if your parents were scientists. 
So, in the lesson, the other students and I were allowed to practice what we learned on PCs. There were only a couple of kids and fortunately, there were enough computers for everybody, so we didn’t have to take turns. The teacher first guided us through how to access different folders on a hard drive, after which she proceeded to demonstrate creating files. Every task was performed by typing commands into the PC, could you imagine that? I followed the instructions and managed to write a document file with my name in it.
How the computer-operated was akin to magic in the eyes of a 10-year-old like me. From then on, I felt as if a passion for computers and technological devices was brewing inside. I became keenly interested in the potential that they could achieve. And now, looking back at it as a computer programmer, I really think this lesson led me to the job I love, and for that, it will always have a special place in my heart.
