Hi everyone! :)
My name is Raquel, and I am the person in this video with Val.
I absolutely loved to film this interview with Val in our wonderful school in Nanjing, China.
Like I mentioned in the video, Val is not only a great RUclipsr but also a great guy in real life!
Thank you again for having me Val!
This was a new experience for me, and even though I was nervous, I am also so excited!
I hope my story can inspire some of you to go on in similar adventures and try ESL teaching :)
Also, subscribe to Val's channel everyone!
It's a great resource for ESL teachers and Val puts a lot of effort into them.
Now I know how much since I was able to see Val operate behind the scenes :)
Wishing everyone a great day ahead! :)
Thank you very much, Raquel! You are soooooooo kind!!!! 🌹 I was nervous, too, but I am always nervous in front of the camera. 😂 You did great, and I am incredibly grateful to you for your openness and sincerity.
Welcome to China.
Какое замечательное видео! Прекрасная идея взять интервью у начинающего педагога, попавшего в ситуацию своей мечты. Это было так искренне, так легко воспринималось, улыбка не покидала меня на протяжении всего видео! Вэлу спасибо за интересные вопросы, а Ракел за честность, открытость и потрясающий оптимизм и готовность вдохновлять! Ну и конечно за прекрасный английский у обоих собеседников! 😊💯💫
