What makes a good foreign language teacher?

It is really very difficult to be a good teacher, especially a good foreign language teacher. And now one and the same question troubles many people, especially teachers and other people connected with this sphere. And this question is: “What makes a good foreign teacher”. Exactly WHAT?

 So, first of all, I think, it's important to have a good degree – so in his mind there is a simple relationship – the more successful you have been in education the better a teacher you are likely to be.

The next important thing sounds something like this: Teachers need to be caring, creative, and above all know how to motivate their students. In a school classroom they also need to know how to control their students – although it is certainly clear that well motivated and engaged students are much less likely to misbehave! As well as motivating their students the best teachers assess them regularly – letting students know how they are doing and where they are at within a scheme of work – what they need to do next and so on. Moreover teacher should convince everybody that it is absolutely necessary for every educated person, for every good specialist to know English well today.

The third statement argues that it is also the case that teachers need to have continual development and training – nobody can possibly come out of university or teacher training college and be the finished article!

In the same way his or her lessons should be interesting and entertaining, not to tire pupils.

Finally I want to say, that real professionals will never be mocking at the pupils. It is very important for pupils to feel, that their teacher love them; and this is also very important in teachers work.

So, what makes a good foreign language teacher? I think that these things are: a good degree, ability to motivate pupils, continual development and training, and the last but not least - to love pupils. 

How to start writing

The beginning of the composition is one of the challenges for any person. You could notice that when you need to start writing to the composition, there is an insuperable desire to smooth book page, to water flowers or to undermine pencils already in the fifth time. There are many ways to do it.

 One presupposes to have a discussion and to listen all the variants how people begin to write. Other people put on music, think about what they are going to write. Some people close their eyes and shut everything out before they got to work. And there are many other methods like walking around the city and so on and so forth.

But it doesn’t matter completely from what, really, you will start to write, I think, much more important to know two basic ideas of any kind of writing. Still before writing the first offer, you should remind yourselves that on the one hand you have important ideas for your reader, and on the other hand most of all now you want to share them.

Moreover without orientation to own opinion, and also opinion of your future readers, your prose will be lifeless and boring. If you don’t interest about what you write, it is not necessary to think that it will interest someone else. Specifically it is necessary to have confidence that your ideas are significant also your reader really wants, and can even needs your opinion.

So, remember, please, that there are many ways to begin your composition and you have to choose one of them. In addition, to sum it up, I want to say that you should be interesting in what you write and you will do it excellently.
