Post 5, My future job.

First, check out the following video:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/learningenglish/english/features/6-minute-english/ep-170413

Listen and read the transcript of the video and think about the following questions;

- What kind of job would you like to have? How do you imagine it?
- Outdoors /indoors?
- Would you like to travel a lot in your job?
- What about the salary?
- What major are you studying / are you thinking of taking? Would you like to have multiple careers?

- Add any other related ideas.


Well, This is an awkward question for me, since I have been working for several years and, actually, I enjoy my job a lot. 
I realize that teaching is quite different from what I  had thought It would be when I  was a student, but still, I believe it is an honest and helpful way of living. 
Regarding my future plans, I would love to continue teaching, I have found a lot of happiness working with people. Maybe I would love travelling more, but with a purpose. I would teach in different parts of the continent, so I could get to know more about its people and their customs. I know it sounds a bit overblown, but I truly believe that teaching is not just a matter of passing down information in an efficient way; it is also sharing experiences, and by doing this, creating new knowledge. Also, we need to make our best efforts to fight ignorance and prejudice, poverty is not just a material issue but a cultural challenge as well. 
On that same note, If I had to change something, I would love to work with small groups of diverse people (other than university and community college students), so I could get to know them better and learn new and challenging ways to foster knowledge, so I could keep up with my teaching skills.
Currently, my income is a bit tight, so I should be thinking about saving some money, and maybe find more stable jobs.
Furthermore, this term I am finishing my Master's degree in Media Arts, and this is a field  I have the need to integrate into my teaching and everyday work.
In conclusion, I would definitely like to find the kind of jobs which allowed me to meet new people and share our views on life these days

  1. Hi teacher!

    I think your story is very exciting. I love that you like to teach, beyond transmittimg knowledge because I also believe that experiences and encounters with other people they enrich you as people. And finally, we learn in community.

    Regards.

  6. Hi teacher Daniel, I like your passion for teaching (there is a book about Gabriela Mistral's pedagogical thinking), just I didn't understand whether you want to teach about arts or english language or both. Which area do you like most?

    Regards!
