Back to school

When I was in school, I didn't like to study. Before I graduated, most of my classmate carried on studying. Some of them kept studying Spanish in Wenzao or in other university. Some people moved to study English and some people study abroad in other counties. A few people stopped studying to work, including me. Why did I stop my studies? Because of my grade isn't good at that time. I feel learning something was too hard for me. I just want to finish my studies quickly. After I graduated from school, I didn't find some works immediately. I stayed at home and went to study in a cram school, Global Village Language Center. Even though I don't like to study but I don't want to quit of English.
Few months later, I found a job in the Smile gas station to be the accountant. I have worked there for a half year. After that, I worked in the advertisement company. Just for two months. Then, I wanted to get a job about language. I want to be an English teacher. However, I didn’t have any experience of teaching children. At the beginning, I only can be an assistant of English. I worked there more than two years until now. During this period, I need to learn how to teach English to the children. I have learned many teaching skills and sometimes our company will have the training classes. Even through the students for me are young kids, I still need to improve my English level. That’s why I choose to study again.

Hello!!!

My name is Gloria. I'm 23 years old. I live in Tainan city with my family. I'm interested in listening to music, going shopping and watching some sport games on TV. I like football best, especially Spanish football.

Now I work in a cram school. I teach the first and second grade elementary school's students. Sometimes I need to teach them English. I think my English isn't good enough if I want to be a normal English teacher. Even through I just teach some young children. I need to improve my English. That's why I choose to study again.

I graduated from Wenzao language school. My first major is Spanish and second major is English. In Wenzao, I don't like Spanish for the first three years. However, in a winter vacation, I went traveling to Spain with my family. I like the view, the architectures, the air there. When I went to buy a pair of 'camper' shoes in Barcelona, the sales lady could not speak English and I had to communicate with her in Spanish. At that time, I realize the importance of studying other foreign languages. Not all of the world can use English. After that, I try to study hard for my Spanish. Not only for the future work, but also for the communication with other people. Although I didn't use it in my work, I still use it in my life . On the other hand, I like to watch the football game. Sometimes I listened the radio program or watched news about it.

I have graduated for three years. I remember I have learned writing skill when I was at school. But actually I forget the lesson's content. My grammar isn't better. I hope this class can help me to improve my English grammer.
