Why am I doing PGDP?

School has started, finally, after a 4 months holiday. My passion towards children education seems to be cooled down a little bit by a series of holiday activities which tired me out. So, now I shall set aside some time and remind myself of what led me apply for the programme 9 months ago.

I want to work with children because they are cute and good in nature. They usually make me smile when I see their innocent faces and hear their interesting and bright conversations. All children deserve a happy life! However, not all of them enjoy a fulfilling life due to various reasons, e.g. adults' selfishness and weaknesses. I would like to play a part in equipping them with life skills, which hoepfully could shape them into glamourous stars on the stage of life.

Teachers are the adults other than parents whom kids meet every day. Being a primary school teacher, I could influence my pupils positively. But why do I choose to major in English instead of Chinese, Maths etc?

I like English but learning English was a disaster for me! I remember that I failed the first English test in P.1 and I can still recall how nervous I was when I took "G.E. tests" in P.4 - I left many spaces blank! Thankfully, my English was better in sec. school and the opportunity to study in U.K. for A Level increased my confidence in using English. Although my English today is still far from perfect, I am sure my experience allows me to understand the students. I would try my best to help them acquire English language enjoyably!



In the next entry, I will share about my primary English teachers!
