How do I approach the professor? He taught us one subject but wasn't close. Do I email him and tell him that I am applying ? Or do I send him my proposal ?

If you know a professor there, you can get an advantage in admission. It's the same with most universities of the world. If you have spoken to a professor at a foreign university about your work, they might be more eager to take you.
