ABC HAPPINESS

Some of you might know about my teaching career. ;) Well, I am still shy to call myself a teacher but this brainy activity is a great source of my bread and butter. And even more than that. It's also a great chance to practise my nervous system. :) My greatest reward is not always money. It's this inner satisfaction no money can buy (just like love, or  a cat's purring...). It's when I look into my students' eyes and see the light of knowledge.  And what really takes my breath away is that I am often that “electrician”! :D I mean I sometimes help my students switch on the light of their knowledge! This event always fills me with so much strength! I am close to dancing at such moments. :D Perhaps it can be called "crazy professional excitement". I don't know. Maybe you have a better term for this condition (syndrome?)

Today I was so proud of my student...She has finally mastered these 26 signs of the English language - I mean the alphabet!!! I could not help feeling proud of her and a bit of ...myself. :D Haha....

Well, actually my student is my great inspiration...since it's my own mama...Yeah! My mom's been learning English for some years (by tiny steps) but this time she seems to be seriously determined! And it makes me wonder. :) I am happy to see her learning new vocabularies every day. It also can be that my mom's progress feeds my own pride. :) I am now her strict teacher and she is my diligent student. Probably the best beginner I have ever seen in my life so far. :)

I am happy to share some knowledge (or at least dusty remnants of it!) with everyone who needs it. And today I am really thrilled to see how many copy books my dear mama has already completed! I am really proud of her. I really hope she'll be as excited as I was when she starts to speak English. :) I hope she'll enjoy this new world I can't imagine my life without now - the world of the English language. :) Keep your fingers crossed for her and me, please!
