I never imagined I would become so passionate about teaching until high school, when I started tutoring English as a part-time job. At first, I just wanted to help classmates who were struggling with grammar and vocabulary. But as I spent more time explaining things and watching them improve, I realized how much I enjoyed it. What I thought would be temporary turned into something that shaped the direction of my life.

​

Over the years, I’ve learned that teaching English isn’t only about fixing mistakes or going over rules. It’s really about building confidence and showing students that language can be a way to express themselves. I’ve guided students through essays, speaking practice, and exam preparation, but what I care about most is creating an atmosphere where they feel comfortable enough to try, even if they make mistakes.

 

Some of my favorite moments are when I see real change in students. I’ve had shy learners who were too nervous to speak become proud of their voices, and I’ve seen students who felt lost in long texts slowly realize they could handle them. Each step forward—no matter how small—feels like an accomplishment we share.

 

Teaching has shaped the way I look at the world. It’s taught me patience, empathy, and the importance of celebrating progress instead of only focusing on results. For me, English is more than a school subject; it’s a bridge that connects people to opportunities, ideas, and each other. I want to keep guiding students along this path, helping them grow not just in their skills but also in their confidence.
