Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences Since my childhood, I have been frequently asked the same question "what kind of teacher do you want?" At different life stages, I have different answers. When I was a kid, I would say a teacher who dresses neatly and smiles nicely; when I was a teenager, I would prefer a "cool" teacher as a good teacher, who behaves differently from other boring and stereotyping adults; until I grow up, I think a good teacher should have sound subject knowledge, be fair and consistent with all of the students as well as being sensitive to the students' reactions and providing necessary support, and until now I know being a good teacher has nothing to do with his/her appearances and dressings. What makes a good teacher? Being kind and patient Being confident and fair...  [Read more]

Setting clear and achievable language learning goals is essential for students to stay motivated and track their progress. Encourage students to set specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and time-bound (SMART) goals. For example, a student can aim to improve their speaking skills by having a 10-minute conversation in English with a native speaker within three months.
