My Spanish teacher is really nice, but I have a question about something she taught us. How do you use the verb gustar in sentences?

One thing to remember is that the way this verb is normally used is in its "relexive" form, in which the action of the verb is directed back at the performer of the action. Some confusion stems from the fact that this is usually translated as "to like". For example, "Me gustan los perros" can be interpreted as "I like dogs". This always leads to questions like "why is the verb plural in Spanish?". If you give it a more literal spin, "The dogs are pleasing to me", you can see its true nature better.
