The English language is now the
first language of about 400 million people, the native language of 12 nations
and the official or semiofficial language of 33 more nations. That means one in
every seven people in the world speaks English. The English language has become
the "new Latin" of the 21st century, the world’ top
tongue.
Nowadays in Russia English
language has become the most popular one among foreign languages.
As for me, like this language and
English help me in my life.
From the very childhood I dreamt of becoming a teacher. The right choice
in the modern world is becoming increasingly difficult. A great number of new
and prestigious professions appear. More knowledge is required to implement
one’s plans for his (her) future life. In addition, it is necessary to take
into account the psychological characteristics of the individual. For many
professions the character and natural gifts are not less important. I
understand that the noble and time-consuming work of a teacher is not highly
valued in the country, salaries are small, the environment at work is far from
being favorable and the profession requires constant dedication. But I believe
that doing things you love, and not just making a career, can bring excellent
results. There are a lot of examples of the teachers
who have become known for their work. I have read many
books and watched a lot of movies about this fascinating, generous and
interesting job. I think that the life of a society and a country as a whole,
depend on the teachers, the quality of their work, their skills and commitment.
I think the job of a
teacher is very difficult and one of the noblest professions among others.
A teacher is the kindest, the most necessary and charitable profession.
Not everyone is suitable for it and can make a good teacher. To become one you
need to be able to sacrifice a lot, to have a passionate heart and concern
for the children entrusted to you. It is one of the most responsible
professions because the teacher does not deal with machines or objects, but
with children, the most precious and vulnerable ‘material’. The
teacher will inevitably influence them, mould their personalities,
build up their prospects, as well as determine their priorities and values in
life.
My choice depends on many factors. I’ve always liked reading, especially the
works of English classics. Learning English language is not an easy task. It is
a long and slow process that takes a lot of time and efforts. I want to give chances to my pupils to see the world through
language, to give them hopes and dreams. Thus, learning English is the window
to learn the world. A good English teacher must possess many qualities: to be
creative, hard -working, self-restrained, able to solve problems and make the
right decisions. It is very difficult to be a good teacher because he
must impart all his knowledge, skills and generosity to
pupils.
Now is considered
that good English teachers should not only know the subject matter because
nowadays the teacher is not considered the only source of information, I
certainly agree with this theory, but I consider that you should not be a good
teacher of English language if you don't know English, by this I mean that good
teacher expect other specifics should know the subject. Then other quality that
the teacher must possess is the quality called "knowing your
students", by knowing our students we will know what do they need, what do
they know and what they don't know. Of course by knowing our students we will
use the appropriate method for them during the process of teaching. Typical
daily duties of an English teacher include preparing, assigning and grading
lessons and homework and evaluating students and preparing progress reports.
Teachers have the
very important responsibility of shaping the lives of young, impressionable
children. With this responsibility comes great pride and joy. Therefore all
teachers should strive for what can be considered to be a “good teacher.” A
good teacher can be defined as someone who always pushes students to want to do
their best while at the same time trying to make learning interesting as well
as creative. A positive or negative influence from a teacher early on in life
can have a great effect on the life of a child. Teachers, especially at the
elementary level, must be very creative with their teaching styles. Not every
child learns the same way, nor are they interested in the same things. It is
difficult to keep the attention of 15-20 children under the age of ten.
Teachers do not only teach their subjects. They develop their pupils'
intellect, their attitudes to life and to other people.
For me being a
teacher is a pleasure. It is good to know that there is a child that adores and
loves you. And I'll be more satisfied when I'll know that they are learning
things from me. I do not like to be adorable from my students just because I'm
their teacher, but I would like them to value my work. I thing that I have
sufficient reasons to become an English teacher. I hope one day to be the most
successful teacher.
