Love is blind - you know.
And I do love the English Language)) It seems as if I've been in love with English since my early years which evidently is not true)) During school years we used to quarrel and squabble as the most passionate lovers. At high school I would fleet and float within English unwilling to change anything in my life. After graduation English somehow failed to be the only value and I honestly tried to do something else and even studied law for some time. But It was beyond my power. So I gave up long ago. I'm supposed to be a kind of English-holic :) I watch videos in English, read English books, surf the English-speaking part of the Internet whenever I need any inquiry, the language of any of my devices (mobile phone, player, computer, camera etc.) is English)) I work as an English ...
One may say that I'm working hard to master my English. That's not true)) I'd rather say that's my lifestyle))
Love is blind, and frankly speaking there's little you can do about it ;)

@музыка: it's rainy & windy today

Truly love is blind! The relationships between English and me have been growing in the same way. Ans I also believe this is not a mere affection for language but a lifestyle.
You know, I haven't had the opportunity to take a course in English at the philological department. I could only manage to enter Polish philology and a year later I left it disappointed. But I still have love for English and I wish to master the best English I can. I'm going to become a teacher) I cannot continue my life working as a manager :), this would have been too sad.

It's not too difficult to become a teacher, actually :) as Cambridge offers quite a number of qualifications that allow teaching without Higher National Diploma in Teaching English as the Second (or foreign) Language (ESL). You may easily browse them on the Internet: CELTA/DELTA, TKT + something more depending on the country. I am taking TKT (Teaching Knowledge Test) next Saturday. So, you may also have a go ))
