In this episode, I chat with Joyce, a beginner English teacher, about her journey in the classroom. She leverages the skills she developed as a content creator, using innovative teaching strategies to inspire her students in learning English. Joyce shares her effective methods, including shadow reading movies and video clips, and discusses her preference for intensive listening and reading techniques, while I lean towards extensive ones.
We discuss the importance of building a supportive community, asking questions, and forging connections, as well as her experiences in a Toastmasters club that helped her acclimate to a new city and role. Joyce also opens up about her hobbies, including learning guitar and watching movies, and how creating a schedule has helped her stay on track and achieve her goals.
Join us as we explore the transformative impact of adopting her cat, Haoqi, and the positive outlook she maintains in life. Tune in for insights on education, personal growth, and the joy of embracing change!
