Unit 3. Passion
Hello, my superstar student. This is Alex your English teacher. I hope you are having a nice day today. Welcome to our third lesson, the lesson number three Passion. Lets get started.
Gabriela was a Spanish teacher, but her students didnt like her. She never smiled in classes. She never listened to her students. She never looked at her students when they talked. It seemed like she hated her job. It seemed like she wanted to quit the school.
Happily, there was another Spanish teacher in the school. His name was Alberto. Alberto had a passion for teaching. He jumped and shouted in classes. Alberto encouraged his students. Alberto inspired his students. His students loved learning Spanish with him. Alberto was a very successful teacher. No wonder, all the students liked him.
One day Gabriela was talking to Alberto and she said: You are popular with students. You are a successful teacher. And I am not. I want to be like you. Whats wrong with me?
Alberto said, Lets face the music! You are a boring teacher and your students feel it. You have no passion for teaching. You must be passionate about teaching.
Gabriela decisively went to the college library. She read each book about passion. After two months of reading, Gabriela changed her attitude to teaching. She became a very passionate Spanish teacher. Every day she often smiled in her classes. Every day she yelled and jumped. Every day she was excited and enthusiastic in her classes. Now Gabriela became quite popular with students. And she was not going to quit her job.

The Vocabulary Lesson
Hello, my superstar English student. This is me again, Alex your English teacher, your passionate English teacher. Welcome to the vocabulary lesson forPassion.Lets get started.
Okay, the first word I am going to talk about is Passion, of course.
Passion. Passion. Passion means a very strong emotion such as love, hate or envy. Here, of course, we use passion in a very positive meaning. Passion is something that makes people do things, good things. Passion is something that makes people create beautiful things. Passion is something that gives people power and energy something that motivates people.
We need passion to be good parents. We need passion to learn English. We need passion to speak English and not only. We need passion to be better.
So Gabriela is a Spanish teacher, but her students dont like her. She never smiles, as you remember, in classes. She never listens to her students. She never looks at her students when they talk. It seems like she hates her job. It seems like she wants to quite the school.
Here we see the expression it seems like.
We use this expression to say that something appears to be true. It appears to be true that Gabriela hates her job. So it seems to be true that she wants to quite her job. It seems or it appears to be true that she hates her job. It seems like Gabriela hates her job. It seems like she wants to quit the school.
And next we see to quite. It seems she wants to quit the school.
To quite. To quite means to stop or to give up usually a job. It also means to leave. Bye-bye. Gabriela wants to give up her job. She wants to stop working. She wants to leave the school. She doesnt want to work for the school any more. It seems like she wants to quit the school.
Luckily, I think, there is another Spanish teacher in school. His name is Alberto. Alberto has a passion for teaching.
Alberto has a passion for teaching. When someone has a passion for something, it means he has love for doing it. Alberto has a strong emotion for teaching. He loves teaching. He has love for teaching. Alberto has a passion for teaching.
Alberto has a passion for teaching. When someone has a passion for something, it means he has love for doing it. Alberto has a strong emotion for teaching. He loves teaching. He has love for teaching. Alberto has a passion for teaching.
That is why he jumps and shouts in his classes. He encourages his students. Alberto inspires his students. His students love learning Spanish with him.
And we see two wonderful words: encourage and inspire. They are very much similar. We use them a lot in English. Let me explain them to you.
To encourage means to support and to inspire means to give someone a feeling of confidence and support. So Alberto supports his students. He says, I know you can do it. I believe in you. You will speak Spanish well.
Alberto gives his students a feeling of confidence. He says, You are creative. You are intelligent. You can do it. You can speak Spanish. Alberto inspires his students. He encourages and inspires his students, right?
This is the reason why he is very successful. He is a very very successful teacher. No wonder, all the students like him. When do you we say this phrase? I mean no wonder. We say no wonder when we are not surprised by a situation or event. So it is not a surprise that all the students like Alberto. No wonder, all the students like him.
And you remember that one day Gabriela is talking to Alberto and she says: You are popular with students. You are a successful teacher. And I am not. I want to be like you. Whats wrong with me, Alberto?
Let me start with the sentence You are popular with students. It actually means that students like you. They listen to you and they do what you ask them to do. Alberto is popular with students. The students like him. He is popular with students.
Alberto says, Lets face the music! You are a boring teacher and your students feel it. You have no passion for teaching. You must be passionate about teaching.
Next we see Lets face the music or simply face the music or lets face it. It all means the same. Lets face the music means accept criticism or simply see the truth. See the truth that you are a boring teacher. Face the music you are a boring teacher. Just accept it as a truth. Lets face the music! You are a boring teacher, Gabriela.
You have no passion for teaching. It means you dont love teaching. Teaching is not for you. You are not interested in teaching. You are not a passionate teacher. You are not passionate about teaching.
You must be passionate about teaching. You must be passionate about means you must love doing something, teaching. You must have love for teaching. You must be passionate about teaching. Well, I think you get the idea.
So what does Gabriela do next?
Of course, she thanks Alberto. Thank you. Thank you. And she decisively goes to the college library.
We see a very nice word to know decisively. Decisively means to decide what to do quickly and confidently. Gabriela decides quickly and confidently to go to the college library. She decisively goes there. She doesnt think much about it. She decides quickly and confidently in her head to go to the college library and she does it. Gabriela decisively goes to the college library.
She reads books, each book about passion. After two months of reading, Gabriela changes her attitude to teaching. She becomes a very passionate Spanish teacher.
To change ones attitude to something simply means to change your mind or to change your feelings or opinions about something. Gabriela changes her feelings, her opinion about teaching. She changes her attitude to teaching. She becomes a very passionate Spanish teacher. She becomes a very emotional Spanish teacher.
Every day she often smiles in her classes. Every day she yells and jumps. She is excited and enthusiastic in her classes.
And our next word is enthusiastic. When you are enthusiastic it means you are passionate about something or interested in something. Gabriela is passionate about her lessons. She is excited and interested in her classes. She is excited and enthusiastic in her classes.
And of course, now Gabriela becomes quite popular with students. She is not going to quit her job. No, no, no.
And our final word for today is quite. Here quite means very. Now Gabriela is very popular with students. Gabriela becomes quite popular with students. The students like her very much. And of course, she is not going to quit her job. She is going to continue working for the school. She is passionate about teaching. She becomes successful and popular. Now she wants to continue being a teacher.
Thats all. Listen to the vocabulary lesson one or two times a day. It will help you to understand the story better. It will help you to use the words correctly and accurately. The next lesson is the mini-story lesson.
As you know, the mini-story lesson is the most powerful and the most exciting one. See you there!
