七、
I like it very much mainly for the following two reasons. First，in the class，we are exposed to different kinds of English films，which help us improve both our English listening and speaking. Equally attractive are the amazing stories of the heroes，because they show us how a person can work hard to make a difference.
As a young student，I suggest that the teacher choose some more films that appeal to us teenagers，thus making the course more interesting. Besides，more activities should be included so that we can have more chances to practice our English.
I'd appreciate it if you could take my suggestions into consideration. I hope that the course will become more popular.
