My Path to Becoming an English Language Teacher

Early Inspiration for a Teaching Career

A Defining Moment in High School

My passion for teaching English began when I was in my third year of ESO in high school. One day, while my English teacher was explaining the lesson, I had a moment of clarity: I knew I had to study English. From that moment on, my path was clear. I have always considered her one of the best teachers I have ever had.

Childhood Influences

A significant factor that solidified my desire to be an English teacher was my early exposure to the language. My mother enrolled me in an English academy when I was just four years old, which stimulated my interest as I always enjoyed those lessons. Another key experience that reinforced this was teaching English to my younger cousins.

Academic Path and Course Motivation

Current Studies at Murcia's University

I am currently a third-year student of English Studies at Murcia's University. My degree is designed to provide the general knowledge and skills necessary to succeed in this course. Completing this program will qualify me to teach English to students at all educational levels in various schools and centers.

Why I Chose This Program

I have decided to take this course because it will help me in several ways:

• It will allow me to complete my studies to become a certified English teacher.
• It will significantly improve my own English skills.
• It will equip me with the ability to communicate effectively in another language, a skill I believe is crucial in today's society.

Practical Experience and Personal Skills

From Private Tutoring to Real-World Communication

I am confident that I am well-prepared to begin this course. I meet all the academic requirements, as proven by the enclosed documents. Furthermore, my experience as a private tutor has shown me that my feeling for teaching is not just an interest, but a genuine passion.

My personal life has also provided valuable practice. My parents own a shop in Almoradí (Alicante) where many of our customers are English speakers. I have frequently communicated with them in English to resolve their doubts and answer their questions. This early and consistent interaction sparked my interest in the language from a young age and helped me develop strong communication skills, which I believe are essential for a teacher.

Conclusion: Ready to Contribute

In conclusion, I am confident that I possess the necessary experience and knowledge to achieve this new goal. I consider myself an extroverted and self-reliant individual who is eager to contribute to society through teaching.
