Answer :

answer:What a great idea! I love it! Here are some of my favorite words: Indubitable (or indubitably) Immense Ok now I’m drawing a blank. :/ What kind of words are you going for? Adjectives, nouns, or adverbs? How about terms from the subjects she teaches – grammar, poetry, and literature? Do you want words that might describe her and her teaching, or just random (awesome) words? Does she have any favorite words that you could use? Perhaps you could ask someone to slyly steer a conversation in the direction of cool words – as an English teacher, this wouldn’t be that odd. Or you could sneak a peek at some of her teaching books – she probably has some great vocab lists, which she would recognize and understand why you chose the words you did.
