Level 3 - Post 2 Why did you choose this career/study programme?


Write about:- your dream jobs when you were a child- other career options that you had at the moment of applying to university- what made you decide in the end- your experience at university until now- the kind of job you would like to have > word count: 130 words > don't forget to leave comments on 3 of your classmates posts and on your teacher's post as well.  



My career:When I was a child, I used to dream of being a truck driver. Obviously, my parents recommended studying something with 'more future'. I never understood that.After finishing my secondary education, I had to choose a career. I had a lot of possibilities: dentistry, lawyer, painter, etc. However, something  that I wrote in a copybook when I was in primary school was definite: I wanted to be a teacher of English. Coincidence?, destiny? I don't know. The only thing I am clear about is that I have never regreted becoming a teacher. On the contrary, I love working with human beings. My experience at this university has been fantastic. I can find nice people everywhere, and hard-working and respectful students. If I had to choose again, I would be a teacher.

    wow, that note in your copybook is a very interesting coincidence.

    PS: being a truck driver, a truck hit an antenna in your neighborhood, coincidence ?, I don't think so
