Why did you decide to become a teacher?
I want the students to become interested in English so they like it and think its fun learning
English. Really, I think motivation is the key to good teaching and learning. I hope to communicate my enthusiasm, so the students feel enthusiastic. When I see a student make great progress, all the work turns into joy.
That’s why I decided to become a teacher.
Who were your role models in education?
My father is a university professor and when I was a high
school student during the summers he let me participate in his classes. He used high density information, and humor
to keep everyone working hard and happy. Also, I like to watch movies with great comedians, like Mr. Bean and Jim Carrey.

What are your strengths as a teacher?
I use lot of humor. I’m very patient and I believe human potential is much
greater than most people think. So, I look for the positive aspects of student's
efforts and build on that. I believe students and teachers need to have mutual
respect and a basic moral foundation. Then, in the classroom everyone can participate in cooperative learning. So, I try to
teach more than just language skills. I try to be a good model of moral behavior,
and make a good atmosphere for everyone. Also, I try to keep the mood light. I use lots of jokes and physical comedy.
