I would appreciate it if someone could correct this. Thank you in advance.
Part 1:
I would like to talk about my profession. I work as a teacher. I teach German as a second language (GSL) at a public school in Germany. This profession is respected and also well-paid, but it requires a lot of commitment, patience, and expertise. One needs not only pedagogical training but also inner motivation, a kind of calling.
Every teacher has the task of imparting knowledge, supporting students, and accompanying them in their personal development. This includes lesson planning, performance assessment, and collaboration with parents and colleagues. Subject teachers also take on subject-specific responsibilities.
As a teacher for German as a second language, I support students with a migration background in acquiring the language and integrating into society. I help them express themselves linguistically, manage everyday school life, and find their way in a new environment. In doing so, I respond to different language levels and cultural backgrounds and often serve as an important point of contact.
Like any profession, teaching has its positive aspects and challenges. Advantages include good pay, relatively few weekly teaching hours, and the opportunity for regular professional development. Moreover, the job is very interesting because you work with young people every day and accompany their development. For example, it’s rewarding when a student suddenly speaks confidently in front of the class or when a class successfully completes a project together. As a German teacher as a second language, you also experience the joy when a child with a migration background is able to form their first sentences in German after a short time.

Hello Sergej,
This is extremely well written! I enjoyed reading it very much. I can hardly see any room for improvement so I just have a couple of tiny suggestions 😊
Part 1:
“As a teacher for German as a second language” I would change to “as a teacher of German as a second language.”
The last sentence is a little disjointed. I believe you do don’t want to repeat yourself here by saying the same thing twice? You prefer not to say “as a teacher of German as a second language” again so instead you say “as a German teacher as a second language” but unfortunately it does not sound quite right. It might be better to repeat yourself, or completely change the sentence. Maybe you could try: “Similarly, you experience great joy when a child with a migration background is able to form their first sentences in German after a short time.”
Part 2:
Just one small addition for your consideration:
“I can say with conviction that becoming a teacher was the right decision for me.”

"... relatively few weekly teaching hours..." Never admit this, even if it's true :) Say it "provides a good work-life balance." :)

On the other hand, the job is often stressful, especially due to the many tasks outside of teaching. Some people react with envy or lack of understanding toward the teaching profession.
Working with refugee children often brings additional emotional stress. This task is particularly demanding and requires full commitment – often beyond regular working hours. You worry about individual students, have conversations during breaks or after class, and carry many issues home with you emotionally.
All in all, I believe that everyone should carefully weigh the pros and cons for themselves. For me personally, the positive aspects outweigh the negatives. I find the work as a teacher very fulfilling and exciting. I can say with conviction that becoming a teacher was the right decision.
Thank you for your attention. I look forward to your questions.
