things I take pride in

Well, the task is to write about something I feel proud of or that makes me feel good. It can be both a difficult an easy question. As someone, if I'm not mistaken Leo Tolstoy said people feel happy because of different reasons, as well we take pride in different things too. Someone can pride on achievements in personal, family life or at work while others can feel proud because they've managed to overcome some hard troubles, phobias or got rid of some bad habits and addictions. Not long ago I was discussing the topic "reading" with my pupils, talking about what books teenagers like reading nowadays and what inspires us to take a book and read it. So one of the boys told I can be proud of myself as being a teenager I read 20 volumes of Dumas' novels. Well maybe for our modern teenagers who don't like reading this example can sound cool but I'm not sure it's such a great deal for an educated person. However I'd say that my pride is what I do every day, teaching kids, giving them knowledge and trying to educate clever personalities. I've been teaching for 18 years and there were both diligent and not diligent students and then pupils but there are some who connected their life with English language and achievements let me think that I've also made some contribution in it. It was great to see students who spoke rather fluent English, read and wrote good essays and then found job in some foreign company. And it happened because I did my job well. I' working at a private school now and can be proud of pupils who nowadays study not only at our local universities but at the branch of Nottingham University in China. I'm also proud of the fact that the authorities of the nature reserve Muraviovka Park not once invited me help teaching English to Russian children in cooperation with some American educators.
Well, finally I'd like to say that though sometimes I feel tired of my work and kids who have no desire to learn anything I nevertheless enjoy teaching them and hope that all my efforts won't be vain.
