Teacher's answer: 10



For eleven years I have been longing to be this age. That is because I have always wanted to be an English teahcer, and finally I achieved it!
In order to reach the heaven I'm living in, I had to go through five thoroughly exhausting years at the UCA university, where I studied US and UK history, literature and grammar, among others. I also had a subject called "Communication Psychology", where my mum was my teacher. That was rather awkward! In addition to that, I went abroad to the UK one year ago, to fulfill my English studies. Imagine my happiness when I realized I could travel, I had been looking forward to that trip for half of my life!
To correctly do my job, I have to be very organized. My responsibility is to plan every single class and correct the homework I give my students, and I must arrive at school on time. Another thing is that I have to be very creative, and that's one of the reasons why I like this profession: my everyday challenge is to be enthusiastic and imaginative, I have to create new methods and activities for my students, so that they learn but they don't get bored.
I think that my job will probably lead me to acquire more experience and knowledge, in order to transmit that wisdom to my class. I am also thinking of starting the traslator career in the UCA university, but I'm not very sure, because Law is one of the subjects, and I find it very boring.
In conclusion, it was hard, but I finally could achieve my whishes and now I have the job I've always wanted. In regards to my future, it remains unclear concerning another career, but I am hoping to be a wiser and more experienced person, so that I can make my students more knowledgeable people.


Note from the author: This is the first actual essay of the year, the other one was just a story.
This essay was written as though I was 24 years old, that's why it is written in past and present tense, not in future tense.
I partycularly liked this essay because it gave me the opportunity to write about what I'm always daydreaming about, and to let people know some of the gratest desires of my life.
