Hello to everyone reading this! I am Julia and in this article I am going to tell you about myself. I am 34. I am married. I have two sons: Phillip and Jacob. I am a dog owner and a good cook.

But my most important mission is that I am an English teacher and an English fan! I have been teaching for more than 10 years and I am quite good at training adults as well as children.

What is "being a good teacher"?

# It`s being able to listen rather than speak. (A good teacher gives their students 90% of the lesson time to discuss the topic leaving 10% of the time for him/herself).

# It`s being ready to give a hand with understanding something beyond your student`s understanding. (It`s rather common for a teacher to deal with information which seems super-hard for the student. So, a good teacher makes hard simple, long short and boring exciting!)

# It`s being wise enough not to judge and not to evaluate! (It is sure vital to trace your student`s progress but be careful not to point to the failures more than to success!)

To sum up, teaching is a challenge. Will you dare?
