I strongly support the idea that language is for communication. As long as one fails to understand the receiver’s message, he/she for sure fails to respond. With this in mind, I like teaching English language because I help them communicate with others in English language. That students can easily establish good communication in which they can convey and understand messages with ease is the primary goal of language teachers. Accuracy and fluency are two significant factors in language education teachers should pay attention to. For that reason, I prefer integrating form and meaning in my classes for effective communication. Simply put, I endeavor to develop communication skills of my students through providing them exercises or activities in which they can learn speaking and grammar simultaneously. Thus, my teaching purpose is to create a learning environment in the classroom where the students can enhance their communicative competence through practicing accuracy and fluency concurrently.  My short term goal is to enable the students acquire necessary knowledge (e.g. grammar, vocabulary) and my long term goal is to enable the students to apply the knowledge to develop their communication skills.
