Examination is the main motivation. I would like to say 80% of the students are motivated to learn because they want to pass examinations and access a place at a good high school. Do you think that motivation has the positive or negative influence on the learning English? Examination has both a negative and a positive impact on the learning and teaching of English language. On the one hand, for students who are willing to study, the examination is good for them, it helps them to be guided in their study and to aim to achieve high marks, which enables them to learn the language very well. Are there any opportunities for professional development in your school? As an English teacher, are many opportunities to develop professionally, for example: further studies, theory learning, and practical training. The main way for us is to attend seminars, public classes and specific training programs. How do you engage in these training of professional development? Since I started teaching, I gradually realized that I lacked experience and was limited in my English speaking capacity. Therefore, I decided to continue to improve my English speaking skills. Now I am learning from my colleagues and from books. Do you think that responsibility is important for a teacher? Responsibility is an important factor in our teaching life. A responsible teacher pays attention to students' lifelong development. Why do I set so many conversations in pair work and group work? This is because if I focus on examinations only I will not help students to develop fully in their learning of the English language. Teachers are like farmers and students
