WHAT I BELIEVE ABOUT MY STUDENTS

I always believe that my students are smart.
I always believe that my students are great persons... but I also realise that everyone is unique. Some of them learn faster than others. Some others do not learn as fast as their friends. Meanwhile, some students are better at certain aspects of English than other learners. I believe, however, sooner or later, if they really study seriously, they will master English.

I always believe that success needs a long process.
Learning and mastering English is not an instant process... it is a long process, which needs hard work and a lot of practices. My students have to use English more often and consistently. They must not be afraid of making mistakes... and they must believe that they can master it if they use English in their everyday life.

I always believe that I have to cooperate with my students and people around them.
A teacher is not everything... a teacher is not an all-round person... a teacher is not a know-how for all questions. A teacher is like a guide that shows a map... Without students, a teacher cannot do anything. On the other side, a student has to work together with a teacher to make his English better. Supports from the students’ family are needed. Parents need to check whether their children do homework or not. The society must not discourage any students who want to practise their English.
