Well, so today I’d like to talk about a time that I helped someone. Well, as an English teacher, I mean as a teacher in general, I’m basically more inclined to helping people, doesn’t matter how or where or when. I just, you know, it’s like an instinct that whenever I see someone in need, especially in terms of school subjects, I’m trying to teach them. And the last time that I told something or helped someone was I was in the library studying for my IELTS exam. So there were two high school students sit next to me. They were sitting next to me and I saw that their books were covered with English back cover pages and everything and I asked them if they are studying English language teaching department and they told me they are not studying for that but they are at the preparation class at the university so as I don’t know whenever I see some students who are studying English I haven’t urged to teach them something or help them or talk to them. So they were actually having difficulty with their writing exam about writing an essay. They asked me for help and actually was the part that I was studying that they caused my IAATs because of my IAATs writing exam. I helped them and after that I felt like I improved I developed my skills like better, my writing skills better after I helped them. And they were like, I saw that they appreciated my help, and they understood the topic very well. So that made me feel like literally I’m a go teacher I said and it made me feel like I don’t know I felt like on cloud nine so I love helping students so I study for English and I like to improve their English actually Thank you.

Well, today I'd like to talk about a time when I helped someone. As an English teacher, I am naturally inclined to help people, no matter how, where, or when. It's like an instinct that whenever I see someone in need, especially in terms of school subjects, I try to teach them. The last time I helped someone was when I was in the library studying for my IELTS exam. There were two high school students sitting next to me, and I noticed that their books had English back cover pages. I asked them if they were studying in the English language teaching department, and they told me they were not, but they were in a preparation class at the university. Whenever I see students studying English, I feel an urge to teach them something or help them. They were having difficulty with their writing exam, specifically writing an essay. They asked me for help, and it was actually the part I was studying for my IELTS writing exam. I helped them, and afterward, I felt like I had improved my own writing skills as well. I could see that they appreciated my help and understood the topic very well. This made me feel like I was a good teacher, and I felt like I was on cloud nine. I love helping students, and I enjoy improving their English skills. Thank you.
