How would you explain this?
My teacher trainee said "By using personalization questions, the teacher CAN GET the students interest".
I recommended 'By using personalization questions, the teacher can make the students interested'. I had trouble explaining why though. Is this simply a matter of collocation or something deeper?
Thank you!

So you wouldn't say 'make someone interested' is a good phrase? Seems natural to me as an American?
