Being an English Teacher is not an easy job. First, you have to start by learning the language (as every teacher has to start by learning the subject that is going to be taught) and then, you need to come up with strategies to teach your lessons and make your classes enjoyable.

So, are there any ways to improve your English teaching skills? Of course, there are, and lots of employers will value you more once you become a skilled teacher.

1. The first thing that you have to think about is that teachin

The story is told about the Russian Emperor Alexander I.  Once he was travelling somewhere in Russia, maybe to visit a relative or a nobleman, or on business. That is irrelevant anyway. They stopped at a station to change horses. While the servants were busy, Alexander I entered the station to keep himself warm. On the table in the room he saw an open Bible. The Tsar asked the stationmaster: “Do you read it?” The stationmaster answered promptly:”Certainly, Your Majesty! Every day!” When the man

       In 1996, I discovered hundreds of species of conches in the marine products market by the seaside of Dares Salaam, the capital of Tanzania. Those shells were incomparably and unimaginably beautiful. The spiraling structure of the whelk, in particular, will dwarf the best works of any architect. Is the brain of a shell creature more advanced that that of a man?

      Later by observing the flower discs of sunflowers, I discovered that the

There is a single red rose, not more young and fresh but its petals are still dark red like blood. You can already see how fall is starting to wither the petals. A man is passing the rose, he's stopping his step in front of the rose.. He's charmed by its beauty and he's enjoying the scent. There are so many fresh roses around the old rose but he isn't noticing it, he is seeing only this bloodred rose and he wants to possess only this rose, that is it what he wants. The blood-red rose is feeling

I will introduce a funny song to you. It is Pen-Pineapple-Apple-Pen.This song became famous because a famous musician, Justin Bieber, tweeted that he liked the song.

I saw his interview about the song. He makes songs with a computer. One day he sat in front of a desk in order to make a song. He had already made the rhythm of the song at that time, so he only needed to make the lyrics. When he was listening to the rhythm, he had a pen and there was an app

The prince and the fairy

He is looking forward to meeting her again. He's wearing a green suit with a white shirt under the jacket. The top button of his shirt is open, and he doesn't wear a tie.
He's excited and can't wait to see her.
For a year he hasn't seen her, and his longing is strong. His brown eyes are flickering He is feeling goosebumps all over his body.

Just once a year, and only for one night, he can see and touch her.

She is waiting too, and she is wearing a yellow dress with beautifu

ducators have many things to worry about. Project-based learning, collaboration between the students, bringing in guest speakers, engaging students in discussions, getting feedback from it, gamifying the learning process… the list goes on and on.

The good news is that technology is there to help both teachers and students throughout this process. Students can easily level up their knowledge and skills if they have the right educational platform at hand.

I was busy hoping when I noticed a slow irksome creature crawl that feet-tall dried plant. I came near it to check who that was. This morning painted boring and my mind was only preoccupied of the upcoming spring. Oh, how I love to trick my fellow insects when it is spring, they are all forgiving. But that day, almost in the last days of winter the surroundings were so dull and unexciting. I hopped and hopped and hopped and went closer to that glutton. “Hey, glutton!  You look awful!” while laug

Once upon a time there was a young man. During that time parents chose brides and grooms for their children. So, one day Zimi's parents chose a girl as his bride. But zimi was not happy with it as he wanted to choose someone himself.

Finally, the wedding day came. Zimi put his wedding clothing sulkily, ate almost nothing, did not laugh! His mother watched him and asked but Zimi did not share anything.

Later wedding took place and having been married they went to a place near a mountain. Having arr

There are two cats in my house. They are very cute and lively. Let's hear their spring talk!

Lili' Hey, Ziao do you know when spring will come?'

Ziao:' What didn't you notice it is about to come?'

Lili: Really, but how do you know?'

Ziao: 'Why did not you hear  how our master was talking last night with his bosom friend?'

lili, 'No, I didn't, please tell me, you know I am also eagerly waiting for the spring.'

Ziao: 'Well, last night he was planning (over phone) to do picnicking next weekend. He was la

      When I was a child, I used to see a woman with an extremely large neck in our village. Each time I saw her, I would involuntarily throw more glances to her. Later I asked my grandma, “why is her neck so big?” Grandma replied, “according to doctors, because she did not have enough iodized salt."

We have only two eyes to see,

whatever we want to see

I can see you fully,

but I can't see me fully with my own eyes

I can see your eyes,

but I can't see my own eyes

I am seeing the world,

whatever way I want to see

You are seeing the world, 

whatever way you  want to see

If everybody is seeing everything in same way,

the harmony will flow everywhere in the world

Hi, everyone! I decided to contribute something in my challenge as Spring and Love have always been my true muses. So, here is my spring fairy tale.

Once upon a time there lived poor Minstrel who had nothing but his old guitar and his enchanting magic voice. He traveled over the country, sang his sincere romantic songs making his listeners forget all their troubles and sorrows and they gave him some food and lodging for the night.

Spring was breaking its way through his land and one sunny day he d

In response to Danny writing challenge: Spring Fairly Tale, though this is not a fairy tale in that sense.

She was gone, disappeared.  I was feeling that she was getting sick, her color was fading, getting white, day by day.  When I looked at her, a pinching shiver used to sweep throughout my body. 

“Are you sick? You are looking so colorless, what is happening to you?”

There rose a feeble smile on her fading lips, the lips which were so red when I saw her first, so full of life.  It was very hard
