Are you an English teacher? If “yes”, then take pride in yourself!

The other day, some of my colleagues and I took part in a teachers gathering held by the local education authourities, which was aiming at enhancing the communication between teachers from different schools. At the gathering, we chatted happily. Suddenly, an idea occurred to us that we could ask the teachers from other schools to guess which subject we teach at school. Surprisingly, all of those who were asked to could dope out my subject except one who just became a teacher last year. When I asked them how they managed to figure it out, they smiled and answered with just one word: “intuition”.

I always believe that all the English teachers have something in common that distinguishs them from other teachers. Look at the English teachers around you, make comparison with other teachers, and you may have some findings.

Now, as an English teacher for about 10 years, I will share my findings with you:

您是一位英语老师吗?如果是,您应该为自己感到骄傲!

不久前的某一天,我和我的一些同事参加了一个由当地教育部门举办的教师聚会,这个聚会的目的在于增强来自不同学校的老师间的交流。在聚会上,我们开心地聊天。突然,我们产生了一个想法:让来自其他学校的老师猜猜我们在学校教什么学科。令人惊奇的是,除了一个去年刚当老师的以外,所有被要求猜测的老师都猜出了我的任教科目。当我问他们是如何猜出的时候,他们笑了,用一个词来回答我 ——“直觉”。

我一直相信,几乎所有的英语老师都有着将他们同其它科目的老师区分开来的共同点。看看你周围的英语老师,将他们同其它科目的老师进行比较,你会有所发现。

现在,作为一个约十年教龄的英语老师,我将同你分享我的发现:

1. The adjectives such as “fashionable, pretty, handsome, lively, cool” etc. are an important part of the comments on English teachersappearances.

形容词,如“时尚、漂亮、帅气、活力、酷……”,是对英语老师外表评判时的重要用语。

2. Generally speaking, English teachers speak Putonghua better than other teachers, even better than lots of Chinese teachers.

一般说来,英语老师比别的老师普通话讲得好,甚至好过很多中文老师。

3. Its not difficult to find versatile English teachers who are brilliant and active. They show up more often on stage.

要找到多才多艺的英语老师并不是件难事,他们才华横溢,活力十足。因此,他们更多地出现在舞台之上。

4. Most English teachers are easy-going, kind and open when getting along with others, and therefore they are often more popular with students.

与人相处时,大部分英语老师随和、友好、直率,所以在学生中更受欢迎。

5. English teachers are often more romantic in their life and full of passion in their teaching. 生活中,英语老师更浪漫;工作中,他们充满激情。

6. English teachers often behave more naturally and gracefully in open occasions.

在公开场合,英语老师往往表现得更自然大方、更优雅得体。

7. English teachers can often step out of the sophisticated world and conventional life style and enjoy an independent life of their own, caring little about fame and profit, which may explain why there are few leaders among them.

英语老师通常能超脱世俗,淡泊名利,享受独立自由的生活,这也许可以解释为什么他们很少担任领导角色。

8. Most English teachers are essential optimists, and appear younger than other teachers of the same age.

大部分英语老师是乐天派,他们看起来比同龄的其它科目的教师显得更年轻。

9. English teachers often lead the fashion of life and closely keep up with the time. 英语老师通常引领时尚,紧跟时代潮流。

10. English teachers are more ready to accept new ideas and notions of foreign culture with their knowledge of the subject they teach.

在他们所教科目知识的帮助下,英语老师更乐于接受外国文化中的新观念。
