Letters for me


After I graduated in university and took the board exam, I applied in an ESL school near our house. It was really not my plan to work there because I didn't know at first what jobs they were needing. So,I brought my resume with me and stepped inside the campus. I had my first interview, then my second interview then my third, which was a teaching demonstration. Basically, It's a school which teaches English to non- English speaking students  for at least a week to the maximum months. It's my first application and also my first job. I stayed there for 1 year and 9 months and I really did experienced a lot of things. I learned a lot and I changed a lot. I learned to talk confidently in front of the public which was difficult for me when I was studying in elementary, high school and university. I learned to open myself more, singing in public, dancing in public, hosting in public, etc. It was like, a place which opens my inner self. And together with my learning and happiness are the people in the school and the students whom I've taught.


I RECEIVED THESE STUFFS FROM MY STUDENTS


An owl origami
This is an origami owl made by my Korean student. She loves to make origami during the class. She loves English but she prefers Origami the most. So, I always prepared an Origami lesson every class time with her. Isn't it adorable?^^ 



Very kind words.
You're welcome.

This is a letter from my Japanese student. It's actually a big letter with few written words. She's a woman with few words I think (^^). Nevertheless, I enjoyed the class with her. I taught her for almost 5 months, the result? I already recognized her footsteps whenever she walks to the classroom. 





       From a Korean student.


This is from my Korean student. He's super duper studious. We barely talk about unnecessary stuffs during the class. He's a runner and loves exercising. See the picture on the letter? Well, that's her girlfriend that he was always boasting to me. Unluckily, the picture's not that clear.^^




Since I've started teaching in an ESL school, I've received a lot of letters from my students as a remembrance when it's time for them to depart from the school and from the teachers and other students. I always enjoyed reading their letters so I kept all of them. Now that I'm not already teaching, I stayed in touch with my students. I missed the teaching profession so much that I've fallen in love with it. It's difficult to imagine that the things I used to hate became the things that I'm loving. 




THE FOLLOWING ARE OTHER LETTERS FROM MY STUDENTS.
