AN ENGLISH TEACHER IN ITALY

My name’s Pauline. I’m thirty. I come from the UK, but I don’t live there. I live in Naples, in Italy. I’m a teacher. I teach English to Italian students.

I came to Italy three years ago. At first, I didn’t know any Italian, but now I can speak it well. I never speak Italian in the classroom – only English!

I enjoy living in Italy. It’s very different from the UK. It’s hotter here, and I think the food is better. People here eat a lot of pasta!

Will I go back to England in the future? I don’t know, but I’m definitely going to stay in Naples for another year. I’m very happy here!

Pauline is a teacher / student.

Susan Marks has got a very important job. She is a zoo keeper. She works at a zoo in Texas. There are over 3,500 animals to look after so she works as part of a big team! Susan gets up at 6:00 am and starts work an hour later. Her first task in the morning is to check that the animals are happy and healthy. Her next job is to clean where the animals sleep and give them fresh water. After this, she feeds the animals! The rhinos eat lots of carrots and apples and special biscuits that give them the vitamins they need.

Susan's favourite part of the day is when she gets to play with the animals. Right now she is helping to train a female tiger. Spending time with the tiger helps Susan gain her trust. It's hard work but the tiger is making progress.

At 5:00 pm when the zoo closes, Susan finishes work but her walk on the wild side starts all over again the next day!
