I'm an English teacher. I work for a nursery school. My job involves supporting native teachers and of course teaching English for kids from 3-5 years old twice a week. I'm responsible for all kids in school. And sometimes I have to answer a lot of questions of kids' parents. Most of my time is spent teaching English and thinking of interesting lessons which engage kids in class. Also, I have to create many funny games to attract children more. Honestly, I don't like my job much because sometimes I find it is exhausting work. Some kids are very active, they don't want to sit for long periods of time so it's hard to control them. I have to speak aloud all the time. That's the reason why I often get a sore throat and then I need take medicine. In addition, it is a dead-end job. I occasionally get bored because there will be something the same from day to day. Honestly, I'm thinking about quitting this job and finding another one soon.

I spend most of my time reviewing my teams' work, developing finance strategies for my company and I also ensure the business maintains a sustainable cash position at all times. I find my work quite challenging and sometimes, fascinating. It also gives me a lot of exposure which I feel is equipping me for the next phase of my career. May I mention too, that sometimes my efforts in ensuring the business runs smoothly can go thankless. Regardless of the aforementioned, i am grateful for the privilege to work for my company.

Most of my time is spent teaching English and French to adults and young adults. I have to prepare the lesson plans, design didactic material, and make lots of photocopies.

Teaching is rewarding, creative and challenging, but at times it's thankless.

It has been a difficult road but now I can say that I am a horticulturist. I like too much learn about the crops everyday, work under the sun, enjoying the birds company, and the sound and the sensation of the wind. Also, in my garden everything is natural because we do not use chemical products and for that reason our clients appreciate our work. (thanks for reading and thanks to the channel for the lesson)

I'm a nurse. I work in the radiology department of a diagnostic center based in Lagos. I have to look after patients, educate them about the procedure they want to undergo and make sure they're comfortable. I'm responsible for about 40 - 60 patients, most of my time is spent talking to patients and also ensuring that the procedure rooms are kempt. I think is quite rewarding because it involves helping people holistically and it also reminds me that nothing in life is worth fighting for.

[@Oxfordonlineenglish1]

Nice answer! Here are three corrections for you: 1. After '...40-60 patients', you need a semicolon, a full stop, or a conjunction after the comma. You can't join two full sentences with a a comma. 2. 'Unkempt' is commonly used; 'kempt' is technically possible but it's never used in modern English. Better to use 'tidy', 'clean and tidy', or something similar. 3. Saying '...nothing in life is worth fighting for' is a very pessimistic expression. It means that nothing in life is valuable. It's possible, but a little dark! Is that what you meant? Thanks for sharing!

Hello. I am a pensioner now, but I used to be a high school teacher. My subject was history. Everyone had teachers n their lfe. There are teachers who are loved and who are hated. What's the reason? To not being hated teacher, first of all, you should love your job. That's was my case.Teaching is everything, it's demanding and creative, it's challenging, but really rewarding. What a joy is to see all those young faces, turning to you and eagerly waiting to hear something new. But, to be honest, it wasn't every day. Sometimes, the class went mad, hubbub arised , and you have to think desperately and quickly how to bring them to order. But it's a part of the job, you should be patient and strong to cope with all those wild youngsters. You should love them, you should enjoy being with them. I can't understand young teachers who find the job too dull and thankless, and quit too soon after a couple of years of teaching.

'Internet' is often capitalised; other words follow regular capitalisation rules. 2. 'Which' not 'witch'. 3. 'I'm responsible for the whole design and *implementation* process...'
