Hello everyone,

I am Aziz from Morocco. I am an English teacher in a kindergarten. I enrolled in this academy to improve my English because I want to be a professional teacher.

Although teaching is a hard job, it is a profitable one. If you are a qualified teacher, you will get a good job with a high salary. 

Concerning my hobbies, I like jogging in the morning. To be healthy and strong, you should try running. It is a good sport. I also prefer watching English podcasts to enhance my language. On the other hand, I don't like watching movies and eating fast food. 

What about you? Where do you live? What do you like or dislike?

In English, there are four types of sentences: declarative, interrogative, imperative, and exclamatory sentences. 

A declarative sentence can communicate information or make a statement.

             I am Aziz from Morocco.

             I play football every Saturday in the park.

An interrogative sentence is used to create questions to ask about something.

            What do you like or dislike?

            Did you visit your grandmother yesterday?

An imperative sentence can be used to give orders or make requests.

           You should try running.

           Be quiet and listen to the teacher.

An exclamatory sentence can express emotions, feelings, or surprise. (I don't use this kind of sentence in the paragraph above.)

          What a beautiful day!

Good luck
