Talking about my future

When I finish my Degree in English Studies, I want to become an English teacher. First of all, I would like going to England and practising the language. I want to stay there some years.  Then when I return, I want to do oppositions and obtain a job in a high school or a college. This is my first option, but I would like working in other places if possible in today’s job market.

On the one hand, to become a teacher it is necessary to obtain some important skills. You need to be conscious that you will work with students, and it is a very important role. To turn professional, it is essential to practice and gain experience before working. For example, if I want to be a teacher, I could start by teaching children giving private lessons at home. In this way, I would see if I like the job or not and also make progress at it.

On the other hand, I have to improve on some points to become professional. I have to get used to speak in public. Working as a teacher requires be in front of a lot of people and speak all the time. That is one of my weak points. I will also have to get some basic skills and techniques to teach children and teenagers because it is not an easy profession. I hope it does not take a long time to me to master everything.

In addition, while I study and prepare for the future, I want to try some other jobs because perhaps I change my opinion. It is possible that I like other different job and then all my thoughts of future change too. 

In short, as I have said before, my first professional option is becoming a teacher but I will not reject some other possible opportunities that maybe could be better for me. But I am sure that I will work in something I like doing because if not, I will never be happy with myself.
