The most influential person to me is a teacher of English listening when I was a freshman. His name is John. First, because he is the first person who has taught us how to improve English listening. Like, John told me to buy a short-wave radio to listen to VOA on a regular basis. It turned out to be extremely helpful. In addition, he also taught us how to take notes while listing to some materials. Then, John is very good at teaching. For example , he managed to teach us English pronunciation through creative pronunciation demonstration.and of course, John also taught us tons of listening skills which have largely shaped my healthy listing habit.
