My name is Li Hua, a Grade 7 student in Shenyang. I want to share my ideas about choosing a job.
First, I think the most important thing is to love the job. If you love your job, you will be happy every day, even if it is not the highest-paid. I love English, so I want to be an English teacher in the future. I love teaching kids and helping them learn English well.
Second, you need to be good at the job. To be an English teacher, I need to study hard, improve my English skills, and learn how to teach kids. I also need to be patient and outgoing, because I need to talk with kids and their parents.

Finally, I think a good job should let you have a balanced life. I don’t want a job that takes all my time. I want to have time for my family, my hobbies and my travel.
Choosing a job is not easy, but if you think about these things, you will find the right job for you.
