I have been working as an English teacher in Tibet for almost 14 years. To some degree, Tibet is my second hometown. I love this place. I also love teaching here. Tibet is the extreme west part of China, which is one of the traveling destinations in the world. Everyone comes to Tibet just for travelling, for relaxing, for fun, for the beatiful senery. But I care more about the education of English.

The students in Tibet need learn three languages . Firstly, Tibtan, their mother tougue(native language). Secondly, Chinese, Chinese is their official language(they are totally Chinese). Finally, they have to learn English, a must course to college. So the students in Tibet need spend more time on their lessons than inland students. It's somewhat hard for them to learn three languages, especially for English. Some of them even don't know how many letters in English when they come to Senior High School. It doesn't matter, I can teach them from ABC. Things are complicated than we imagine. Most of them have no interest in learning English. As we all known, the full marks of English test in high school is 150 points, while the average points in my school is 40 points.

What a shame for our English teachers!

I really want to do something to change. The very first thing I want to do is to improve the interest of students' learning English. I guess the students must love games, so I prepare 1 to 2 games in my class. I play an English song each class. And I emphasis the importance of English every class.

Change brings good effect. Now, most students expect to meet me and have my English class. Because they know there is a lot of fun in class. And also they can learn English easily. How proud I am now.

Anyway, It's a great change for me to let my students fall in love with English.
