Model Answer:

The person that I would like to speak about is Mrs. Brown. She was my

French teacher in secondary school. She was actually quite scary: she had a really

stern look all the time and was extremely strict. She was very demanding when it

came to our written and spoken work- I suppose you could say that she was a very

hard taskmaster.

The reason why I didnt like her at first was that she singled me out all the time.

Many of the students were not living up to her very high standards but she seemed

to love to pick on me in particular. I also think that she used to kind of enjoy

embarrassing me in front of the other kids. She also would give us mountains of

homework to do every night.

She really had a big impact on me. To begin with, she certainly made my writing

much more legible. I could hardly read my own hand writing before-haha. She also

improved my study skills and instilled in me a work ethic which would serve me

well down the line. Yeah, she made a huge impression on me-made me.. mmm you

know kind of take ownership of what I was learning.

In spite of the fact that I didnt really get on with her and was really strict and all, I

have to admit that she was actually a really brilliant teacher. I actually think that

if I hadnt had Mrs. Brown as my teacher, I wouldnt have been such a successful

language learner.

say that she was a very hard taskmaster.

5) I actually think that if I hadnt had Mrs. Brown as my teacher, Iwouldnt have been such a

G: Underline the stressed syllable in these words.

1. Hard taskmaster

In English we tend to give more emphasis to words which carry the most meaning in a

sentence. We also give tonic stress to one single syllable in each utterance (chunk of

language). Look at the following excerpt from the model answer. Tonic stress is in bold

and sentence stress is underlined. Listen to your teacher saying the sentence then

practice saying the sentence with your partner.

She was my French teacher in secondary school. She was actually quite scary: she had a

really stern look all the time and was extremely strict.

Notice how any of the vowels unstressed syllables are // or /I/.
