My both experiences on teaching and taking courses..

My experience as a learner; 

Learning It is a process a series of experiences that lead to the great  moments of life
 since I was in primary school. I took English courses, Back then I didn't find it something strange listening to the teacher speaking a different language. I guess becuase of my mom's. since we were little she was talking with us in English and also let us watch different kinds of cartoon. However, the courses I took they helped a lot, also I learned so many things starting from the Alphabets to making sentences and how to write, and I made so many friends which they became a beautiful part of my life. It was the best part of my life. I met there a person, and since then we are best friends and more than sisters, we helped each other, studied together, and we were there for each other. these courses helped a lot becoming the person I am today, I was a shy person not social, I don't like to talk or get a long with strangers , so taking these courses made a much going out person. in addition I became a girl who likes to read books, and watching videos helped me to learn more and more.
And here where I realized that, I want to specialized in English Language, and become a future English teacher, and still I have a lot of things to learn. and I'm glad of what I have done.

My teaching experience;

Teaching English is what I was always looking forward to.
to be an future EFL teacher was one of my dreams. Making students understand and gain information from me make me feel I am in the correct track. Well teaching English in Libya is a bit hard when dealing with students in advanced levels. especially if they were not taught in their early age.  
I believe that teaching is the noblest thing to do. I have been an assistant for a year and a half, and then got promoted for the class teacher position. which was a huge step for me, and made me feel glad that the principle  trusted in me to give me this kind of responsibility.
While teaching, I feel good and happy when my students feel also good and happy because they learnt the key points of my lesson. When my students are not truly satisfied with the content of my teaching.  I tell them that on the next classroom I will explain to them what I have missed in the current lesson. I learned something from my cooperating teacher and from the students almost every day and being open to this allowed me to grow. 
I was able to also form stronger connections with the student have always forming strong relationships with my students in order to create the best learning environment for them. 
 I was able to see the growth of my relationships with them from day to day.  
I have love getting to know each of my students likes, dislike, strengths, and weaknesses. 
I believe that this has helped me better to  teach them and has made my classroom a happier place to learn.
 You can walk into my classroom and see completely different environments teaching styles. .  It is so easy to have your own ways and your own approaches to teaching.  I have learned that opening up to styles that I am not particularly used to is beneficial to help me learn more and more about what I am doing. 
I have really enjoyed my student teaching experience despite all of its hardships and challenges. 
but I can clearly see how it has all grown me as a teacher. However, I like teaching and I  will do my best to improve my self as teacher and learn more and more new ways to improve my teaching skills.
