Dear English teacher, please help me proofread the following paragraphs ..Thanks a million


"It has been almost three years since I began teaching adult English and junior high student English in Taiwan. I still find it an invigorating and profitable experience. Teaching English has given me strong confidence approach new people and brought interesting new people into my life. The happiest moment of teaching English is to share my English knowledge with my students. I feel encouraged when I see my students keep the strong interests in learning English. The most difficult moment of teaching English is to persuade my students to develop the critical thinking skills in English when they learn English. Most of students always try to translate their first language into English, which easily cause the misunderstandings when learning English. "

I re-wrote it for you below, fixing the mistakes:

It has been almost three years since I began teaching English to adult and junior high students in Taiwan. I still find it an invigorating and profitable experience. Teaching English has given me strong confidence in approaching new people and has brought interesting new people into my life. My happiest moments in teaching English are when I can share my English knowledge with my students. I feel encouraged when I see my students keep a strong interest in learning English. The most difficult part of teaching English is persuading my students to develop critical thinking skills in English as they are learning the language. Most students always try to translate their first language into English, which easily causes misunderstandings when learning English.

*Note: you might want to change "profitable" to "worthwhile." "Profitable" could mean that you are making money from doing it, which might not be what you want to say. "Worthwhile" means it is worth doing.

Perfect!

Make the following changes:

"...teaching English to adult and junior high level students."

"...strong confidence to approach new people..."

"when I see my students keeping (the) strong interest in learning English."

"...which easily causes misunderstandings..."
