It is not easy to decide what profession to choose. Usually, 
pupils' plans for the future change many times during the 
school years. There are so many people who influence you in 
choosing your occupation. Parents and friends play a very 
important role in your choice. Teachers' influence on pupils' 
minds is also great. 
My favourite subject is English. And I think this is my 
teacher who made it so. I understand the importance of 
knowledge of a foreign language. It enables people from 
different countries to communicate with each other, to read 
foreign literature in the original, to broaden their outlooks. 
So I decided for myself to become a teacher of English. Of 
course, I know that it is not easy and takes much patience and 
effort. A teacher has to know how to teach, how to make 
difficult things understandable, how to get students interested 
in the subject. 
And of course a teacher ought to have perfect knowledge of his subject. I think the ideal teacher is the one who can combine all these. My present teacher is just like this. She is a great specialist and also a nice personality. I hope in future I can become as good teacher as she is.
