become inspired to

[uktous]

Hi,


Background:
Initially, someone found explaining complex idea in a presentation was difficult, so they were not interested in doing the presentation.

After I helped them, they started to find explaining complex idea was easy.


Idea I want to convey:
I inspired them to do the presentation


Can I say:
Afterwards, they found explaining conplex idea were not difficult, so they became inspired to do the presentation.
?


My opinion:
I think it is fine.
Because "become + a feeling" is acceptable.
Eg, become interested in, become very happy


Thanks

It should be,
"Afterward, they found that explaining the complex idea was not difficult, so they became inspired to do the presentation."

Thank you

I was not sure whether it was sensible to say "became inspired" before.

Oh yes. You are right. It is "to become inspired to do something".
