chat. Respond to them in full sentences (30-40 words per answer). You have 10 minutes.
Alicia: Hey! Welcome to the group. Can you tell us why you wanted to become a teacher? 
I decided to become a teacher because I love children. They are creative and always like 
learning new things. Moreover, it has been my dream since I was a child to become a history 
teacher.
Kalyn: I still remember my kindergarten teacher. Who was your favourite teacher and 
why?
My favourite teacher was my English teacher, Mr. Maxwell. He was from the United 
Kingdom, but he lived in Brazil when I was in high school. He taught us English and History in 
English and was patient and kind.
Connor: I heard that some senior teachers might watch our lessons. What is your opinion on 
this? 
On one hand, I believe that having senior teachers watch us is intimidating and it makes me 
a bit nervous. On the other hand, it would be useful to hear tips from experts on how we can 
improve our lessons.
