I quite enjoy being a Chinese teacher on italki. Here are some reasons. Firstly, I can make a small amount of money to make a living. Who doesn’t like the money? Money is a big drive for me. I teach others Chinese and get paid, and I use some money to learn other languages on this platform. Secondly, I feel a sense of satisfaction when I help a student speak Chinese fluently from scratch. It is a huge achievement. Moreover, some students gave me some nice comments, which indeed warm my heart. It is wonderful! Thirdly, it is one of the good ways for me to kill the time. I would never feel bored when I have free time. I live alone and don’t have many friends to hang out with, so my students are like my friends. I like spending time with them. Fourthly, communicating with foreigners really broadens my horizon. I know more about other parts of the world. I am more interested in reading global news. I am keener to try different kinds of food. I am more open-minded to people with different values. Fifthly, I love my home country and my mother tongue. I want to spread Chinese culture and let more and more people know more about China, and encourage more and more people to learn Chinese.

Stay positive There are four attitudes to tackle the difficulties. 1. When facing something urgent, we should analyse the it calmly and solve the problem in our best. 2. When tackling with something big, don’t worry; don’t panic; don’t be afraid, so it would be fine. 3. When encountering annoying issues, we need to forgive and forget. We can have a happy life by controlling our mood. 4. When having some trivial things, don’t talk about it again and again. Stay positive, stay tuned.

Yo soy una persona muy guapo y divertido. En mi tiempo libre me encanta aprender español. Otras cosas que me gusta hacer son la música y la literatura. Mi color favorito es el amarillo. Mi comida favorita es el arroz. Mi deporte favorito es el footing. 😄😄😄

It is a balmy day. It is sunny and warm with a breeze outside. It would be lovely to lie on the grass to enjoy the sunshine and get tanned. Unfortunately, I need to work inside a company, so I don’t get the chance to embrace the sunshine. But luckily, I always stay in an air-conditioned office, always wearing long-sleeve shirts, feeling neither too hot nor too cold. I don’t suppose there would be any rain today. It is not cloudy right now. Instead, it is a little bit misty and smoggy in the distance probably due to air pollution.

It’s quite easy for me to keep the shape without going to the gyms. Here is my tip: consuming less food. It’s simple, just avoiding the extra energy getting into your body. If I don’t eat a lot, I can be slim, so I am not bothered about the exhausting and time-consuming workouts at the gyms.

I am now living in Hong Kong, China. I signed up for a Spanish class, and there is a Spanish teacher and three students including a Romanian woman, a French man and I, a Chinese woman. We are there to learn Spanish, but coincidentally we can all speak French and of course English. It’s interesting to switch between three languages.
