A gap year is a period of time that people uses for their own things: learn anoter language, relax, work in another country or travel.
Usually this time for people is between high school and college.
The gap year started in sixties and now is common in a student life.
In my future I won't spent one year travelling or relaxing. In two years I will finish batxillerat and if I can, next year I will study in Girona, something relationated with sport. And after this career I will work, if it's possible.
Nowadays a big number of students don't want to study and I think that they don't study because they don't have the motivation to do that. I will give some tips that I think will make school more enjoyable.
First of all teachers have to motivate students to study and tell them the good things of studying and how it can help them in the future. For example teachers can tell students that study in not an obligation, it's good for them because they will learn useful things for their future and they pay attention to lessons they will be able to choose thier future.
Another thing that they can do is find another way to teach, a funnier way. For example in history teachers can make students work in groups or make some groups and they explain the lesson and they will learn while they do a funny and entertaining thing.
And last but not the least they can be more kinder with students especially that ones of first os ESO beacuse sometimes they can have a bad impression of the teacher which is completely different. And if the teacher is kind they will be happier and will pay more attention and participate more during the lesson.
To sum up I think that if lessons and studying are more enjoyable, students will have better marks and won't fail the same number as now.
