这句英语怎么说第119期:英语面试的自我介绍(2)

 　　Yeah, I went to the University of Minnesota and I graduated in 1992. My major was International Relations...

　　with an economics¹ focus and an international business focus, East Asian studies… I was all over the place! I studied lots of different things, but basically International Relations!

　　Then I came to South Korea and I went to graduate school for an MBA, but I didn’t finish the MBA… I had some visa problems!

　　Anyway, I’ve been teaching English in South Korea for a long time. I first started teaching in 1987! Now it’s 2012, so my goodness, almost 25 years! 2011! It’s not 2012! Almost 25 years of teaching English and I really love it.

　　I don’t call myself a teacher, though. I like to call myself a coach. Because a lot of my students — they’re adults— their English basics are really good. They just need practice.
