I think I am a lucky guy. I met a great teacher online,Philip.He is a retired Australian man with an interest in talking with people from all over the world. Via more than a half year’s communication, his teaching abilities and personal qualities have madea deep impression on me.
When we first talked, I was very nervous and didn’t know what to say. It was my first time to talk with native English speaker.Although I had been learning English for several years, I still lacked confidence of myself. But Philip was kind and patient and encouraged me to talk as much as possible. What's more, he sends me lots of useful information to help me learn more about western society and culture. I appreciate his rich knowledge, good sense of humor , talktiveness and positive attitude towards life. I have learned a lot from him.
Nowadays, we communicate regularly online. I feel very comfortable to talk with him. It strikes me that he has a magic power that assists our conversation to flow. We have various topics to talk about and talk happily. But sometimes he is also strict with me, at least I have that feeling, pushing me to do more work by myself. Anyway,many chinese people believe that only strict teachers can teach students well.
