I study at school and there's a person I admire very much. This is my teacher of English. Her name is Nelly Ivanovna. She is about 35 years old. She is a middle height with dark hair and a pretty smile. She looks attractive and she has a pleasant voice. She speaks English in a very melodic voice. I suppose, she can sing well. She is good at speaking and teaching English. Her speech is quite distinct and not too fast. I think everybody can understand easily everything she is speaking about at the lesson. She is an example of every success for me. She graduated from University with honours. And she's been working hard and persistently. She has been to London, Edinburgh and Cardiff. And she's got lots of excellent experiences. She receives lots of letters from her English pen - pals and writes them back. Her friends from London want to see her again.
Besides, she has got lots of friends in Russia too. It seems to me, children love her and other people just get on well with her. After all, I'm happy to realize she is my teacher. I'm lucky to be taught by her and I didn't miss any classes without reasons. I admire her much, she is a model for me in life, and I am going to become a teacher of foreign languages too.
It is also very popular in Ukraine. Football, volleyball and basketball are the main sports. Gymnasyics, swimming and boating are popular in our contry, too.
Sport activities help us to be slim, healthy and strong because good is better than the best medicine. I have "a sound mind in a sound body", as the old latin saying goes. As for me i enjoy basketball. It is a very interesting game. It develops many good qualities such as endurance, will-power and collective spirit. When i play basketball i feel wonderful. I am cheerful, active and full of energy.
