雅思口语中有关高薪职业,我们最容易想到什么doctor啦,或者lawyer什么的,如果最近你看了《我的前半生》,可能感觉“咨询”行业也是不错的工作哦,但是……咱们貌似说不明白啊,所以,还是挑个咱们最熟悉的行业—“教师”聊聊吧。
至于教师到底是不是高薪职业,先不要纠结,我们只要可以想出一些高薪的理由,就可以了!例如,国家重视,国家拨款,而且家长最愿意在孩子身上花钱啊!于是老师的课量绝对有保障。至于家长给老师送礼那段就掐了别播了吧……
然后再说说自己绝对有当老师的条件,一定能当一位“高薪的好老师”,就大功告成了!
Well, I guess I could be a qualified teacher with a decent payment.
First of all, I love to share what I know with others, and I think I have a pretty good command of both Chinese and English, so maybe one day I could become a Chinese teacher or English teacher.
Plus, I have a way with children, actually, not just children, I'm a people person, I'm confident with dealing with all those complicated stuff with parents and other fellow teachers.
I have what it takes to become an excellent teacher because I'm super patient, and I would never play favorites. On top of that, I have a good sense of humor, I know how to bring a boring class back to life.
And as to why I would be paid a lot for it, well, the main reason is that our country attaches great importance to education, they believe that the next generation is the future of our country, so they would invest a lot in this area, and they have given teachers a huge raise to keep them motivated and encourage more people to devote themselves in this career.
And parents are super generous when it comes to their children's education. They are willing to pay a huge amount of money for the after school classes and tutors.
