Part II: Analyzing the story of the movie

1. The story tell us that there are seven students in Welton Academy, Neil Perry, Todd Anderson, Knox Overstreet, Charlie Dalton, Richard Cameron, Steven Meeks and Gerard Pitts. This school is very famous with high discipline. Their thinking about lessons has changed after Mr. Keating came. He is a new teacher of English literature and alumni of Welton Academy too. The teacher teach with different learning method, so that students are inspired by what he taught.

2. Based on my opinin the main actor in the movie is Mr. Keating

Mr. Keating is protagonis and He role as a teacher of English literature. He is teaching the student at class with different methods.

3. My favorite student of The Dead Poet Society is Charlie Dalton. Because He is very brave and confident. Sometime, He acts absurd in front of his friends.

4. I agree with him. Study not only at class but also with other method that make student can raise achievement. Honestly it’s difficult to find teacher like Mr. Keating, with different learning methods he can deliver lessons to student. Students are  inspired by him.

5. I like scene in the last part, when students brave to stand on the table to respect Mr. Keating and goodbye to him.

6. Based on my opinion, three important points that I got from the movie :

a)      Approach        : Mr. Keating tried to approach each student with his style even though He did not get a response from students. As a teacher we should know the characteristic of students and so far student can accept and understand the lesson who has delivered by teacher.

b)      Patient             : Mr. Keating patiently teach student without give up and always give a support to them.

c)      Motivation      : Mr. Keating gives a motivation to student in order to they feel confident and dare to be honest in situation.
