Work or studies

1. What work do you do?

I am working as a teacher in XXX high school/ training organization right now. Usually I would teach English courses four days a week.

There is no doubt that teachers play an important role in students' lives. Back in my school time, I was lucky to encountered many excellent teachers who have had profound influence on me. Their passion to teach and patience to care have inspired me to be a teacher someday. With this idea along, I chose to study in English as my university major and became a teacher at the end of the day.

3. Do you like your job?

I am very fond of my job. Actually teaching is more of a career instead of a job to me. Since I was a child, I always dreamed of being a teacher, standing on the stage in front of the podium.

I always have this feeling that as long as staying with my students, I will be energetic and passionate.

Spending quality time with kids will always inspire me to think out of the box since often times they would ask challenging questions.

5.(Possibly) Do you miss being a student?

Honestly, I do enjoy sitting in the classroom and listening to the teacher, so yes, I miss being a student. Being a student is an enjoyable way for me to absorb knowledge. However, for now, I prefer being the one who is delivering knowledge because teaching is creating values and it's a way for me to pay back what I have learned during the past years.

6. What subject(s) are you studying?

I chose English as my major to study at XXX University. We have courses such as British literature, American literature, Advanced English, Linguistics, Lexicology and etc. I find English is a really challenging but interesting major.

I think to learn another language is a good start to get a comprehensive understanding of their culture. Besides, I want to be the master of the two most important languages, English and Chinese. Once I know more about English and their culture, I can build up more bridges for these two nations in this globalized world.
