I am Fomicheva Marina. I am from Kazakhstan. I live in the
southern part of my country. I was born in Shymkent,
Kazakhstan and go on being there. I went to a state school
in 1985 that gave me a lot. I had a chance to meet my first
teachers that brought me up as diligent on studies, helped
to develop the wish to set and achieve my goals. Moreover,
I am really grateful to my first English teacher that inspired
me to learn English and make it the part of my career.
Some years later, about 10-11 years, we met again in the
university. Could you imagine our feelings and joy?
And again being myuniversity teacher she contributes a lot.
In 1995 I entered the university in my city, the English
department. The university gave me a chance to learn the language and realize what I
am going to be. Being the
4-year student I started practicing at school and then working. Now I remember my first
students and have meeting with them. Frankly, now we are on good friendly terms
without being a teacher and students.
Since that time I am a teacher. I have worked out some courses - country study
(Geography and History of the USA), business English, basis of scientific translation
that are so helpful for my students to function outside the school environment. It is a
great pleasure to hear the words of thank and realize that it’s your job that gives profits
to our society!!!!
In 2004 I got my first degree at school. But keeping working I have achieved the fruitful
results. Every 2 years I improve my degree. Finally, this year I have got the highest one.
2006 took part in the seminar and consulted the project “Country study. The textbook”
2007 a semi finalist of TEA – Teaching Excellence and Achievement Program
2008 June 2007 the city award for the State Exams preparation and great results.
2009 my student has won ACCELS “Freedom Support Act Program” and a year of
living
and studying in the USA.
November 2007 the first place in the City Olympiad among English Language Teachers.
December 2007
the second place in the Regional Olympiad among English Language
Teachers.
2008
a semi finalist of TEA Teaching Excellence and Achievement Program.

How do you reflect on your
teaching? How does that
reflection inform you?
 Teaching is so difficult to be reflected by me. I can also
self assess me as a teacher that is worthy to work. I
consider myself as a hardworking, straightforward, that is
goal-oriented. I try to be so. I exactly know if I am going
to do something it must be done properly and till the end,
otherwise it won’t satisfy my demands , and , moreover, it
will inspire me to go ahead to progress. I have leadership
qualities that help me mostly.
 As a teacher, as a professional I know I am yielding my
fruits now. My student show their progress and advance in
different spheres revealing their knowledge. It a great
pleasure to hear or to be at the moments when they are
thankful to you just saying the words of thanks. At these
moments you realize your importance.
My own evaluation really
affects me. Understanding
my necessity I set my goals for
future. I try to do my best to
achieve them. If I don’t give
feedback to myself who gives?
How should I understand
what to do?

How do objectives influence
your lesson planning?
 To predict and foresee the



learning outcomes of the
lesson
It is crucial for students to
know the objectives to be
aware of what they are going
to do at the lesson
In our countries, Bangladesh, Kazakhstan, Ukraine, it
is important to set and announce the objective of the
lesson to the students at the beginning. But in India it
is not required.
in the US schools we notice that the teachers put the
objectives on the board and the students can see them
an follow throughout the lesson
in our countries the teacher summarizes the lesson to
see if the objectives are achieved. But we in the US
schools the teachers don’t.
in our countries the objectives correspond to the
national curriculum.
The US teachers use more practical things than theory.
