My first English class
Today I gave my first English class.
I applied for a teaching position at a language academy this morning and they asked me to teach the advanced English class! Can you believe it? I had to give a 2 hours English class without any preparation!
I didn't have any teaching experience until today. My major is in Philosophy so I’m more used to writing. However, I’ve always wanted to become an English teacher for no reason in particular.
I entered the room and saw three guys sitting on a couch. This is a new academy so they have just a few students. My first class was about to start and I had nothing to say. So I talked about motivation and success in life.
We had a great time speaking English today and I enjoyed being with those students. In the middle of the class two more students joined. So, I had five students and we continued the class for one more hour.
I was applying for a position, and this was the test. I did my best and I hope they call me with good news.
I'm no one special but those students made me feel important. They were asking so many questions about me. And they treated me like a real teacher. So, I think I found my new passion and hopefully a new job.

Your English is outstanding! I don´t see any grammatical errors. The two spots I highlighted sound just a little less natural than rest. My suggestion for the first is that you simply say ¨I enjoyed being...." . Some people would say ¨I really enjoyed being...¨, but that might be regarded as less professional. For the second spot, I would say ¨like a teacher¨. But again -- everything you wrote was grammatical correct. Great work!
