[Week5] What is your study goal for this year?

What is your study goal for this year? Is English a part of your goal? What do you plan to achieve your goal?

My study goal of this year entirely depends on English. Preparing for Toefl ibt test, participating in English camp, earning allowance by tutoring and so on. In this coming summer vacation, I want to volunteer to help Korean students from abroad, introducing Seoul, help them learn Korean. And I am going to join the English camp as the assistant teacher. I can earn money by work as assistant teacher!
At usual time, I will watch dramas without subtitle, and try to memorize all the expression that used in the drama. One more thing. I will memorize 'President Address' of Bush's and Obama's. It will help me to use high level of English freely.


Tell us about your dream. What do you hope to do 10 years later?


My future goal is to become an independent and unbiased international civil servant. Here is my plan to become a one. In 2011, when I become 21, I want to go to one of the country in europe to experience lots of NGO or UN organizations as exchange students. In 2012, when I become 22, I want to go to England to study and learn English more deeply and experience England English. In 2013, when I become 23, the last year of my university life, I want to work as internship at UNESCO or UNICEF or other NGOs in Korea. In 2014, when I become 24, after I graduate university, I want to enter the international graduate school in Korea or in abroad if the financial situation allow. In 2019, when I become 29 or before 29, I want to get married. I don't care about my husband's nationality, race or age but he should be like real grown-up. In 2020, when I become 30, I want to get job at UNESCO. And I want to work for people who need me. When I become 45, I want to work for Korean Government as competent diplomat. And when I become 65, I want to retire and found a school that teaches Korean Tradition to foreigners and young students.

[Week4] What language areas do you think ... ?

▶ What language areas do you think you particularly want work on to be a well qualified English teacher?
I think each area has important meaning to be a well qualified English teacher. But teaching ability is the most important qualification.Some people think that intelligent teachers are good teachers. However teaching the knowlegde is more important than knowing the knowlegde. To TEACH someone something means to make them think, feel, or act in a new or different way. Having great deal of knowledge doesn't always mean he or she can help students to understand the lecture. Forthemore, I regard having a lot of information as the basic qualification. Well qualified teacher should have great ablitiy to help student learn the knowledge.

Gemma Ward, Heather Marks, and Lily Cole

All of my favorite ModelS!!!!

Lily Cole Model Profile

Lily Cole was born in Torbay, England on May 19, 1988, and raised in London with her two siblings. A chance encounter began her modelling career when she was fourteen. She was walking through the streets of Soho after a hamburger with friends when scout-turned actor Benjamin Hart approached her. Cole ran, fearing she was being chased by 'some dodgey guy' but after being asked if she considered modelling she accepted and was signed on with Storm Models, the mother agency of supermodels such as Kate Moss and Cindy Crawford.
Cole's big break came in 2003 when the photographer Steven Meisel's eye was caught by her combination of long limbs, pale skin and fiery red hair. It was on that photoshoot, her first 'only girl' story for Italian Vogue, that Cole was catapulted into the spotlight as one of the leading new faces of the year. Since then, Cole has worked with many photographers, including Craig McDean, Vincent Peters, Nick Knight, Paolo Roversi, Solve Sundsbo, Tim Walker, Juergen Teller, David Baily, Miles Aldrige, Arthur Elgort, Inez Van Lamsweerde, Vindooth Matadin and Irving Penn.

Cole is featured regularly in top fashion magazines such as Vogue (American, Italian, British, Japanese and Korean), Numero, 10, Citizen K, and V. She has also appeared on the cover of Numero and twice for British Vogue. In November of 2004, the British Fashion Awards named Lily 'Model of the Year'. In addition, Cole has featured in numerous advertising campaigns for designers such as Prada, Chanel, Christian Lacroix, Hermes, Moschino, Longchamp, Cacheral, Topshop, Anna Sui Cosmetics, as well as being the face for Moschino's perfume 'I Love Love.'

She is a common sight on the catwalks of the international runway circuit and has worked for Chanel, Christian Lacroix, Hermes, Moschino, Anna Sui, Jean Paul Gaultier, Alexander McQueen, John Galliano, Louis Vuitton, Giles Deacon and Julien Macdonald.

She is seen as part of a new wave of models, who have "doll-like" or "elfin" features, along with models Heather Marks, Gemma Ward, and Devon Aoki. She is also one of very few red-headed models, others being Cintia Dicker and Jessica Stam.

Despite her successful modelling career, Cole retains a commitment to her education - achieving straight 'A's in her AS-level examinations in English, History, Drama and Philosophy at Hammersmith private school Latymer Upper. She has a conditional place to read Social and Political Science at the University of Cambridge.

Recently, Lily Cole was picked to star in PHANTASMAGORIA: The Visions Of Lewis Carroll, an adaptation of the Alice In Wonderland stories by Lewis Carroll, which will be directed by rock star Marilyn Manson.

Fashion TV FTV - MODELS GEMMA WARD - FIRST FACE NEW YORK

FIRST FACE TALKS GEMMA WARD

Gemma Ward

Gemma Ward








Early life
Ward was born in Perth, Western Australia, as the second child of Gary and Claire Ward. Her older sister,
Sophie Ward is also a model and she has younger twin brothers, Oscar and Henry Ward. She was educated at the Presbyterian Ladies’ College, Perth and Shenton College.
As said herself in a
Teen Vogue interview, she accompanied her friends to a modelling competition and ended up being scouted herself:
I had come straight from my auntie and uncle’s farm, and I was wearing this big gray barn jacket with mud all over it. When the scout came up to me, I said, ‘No, thank you.’ But my friends were like, ‘Hell, yes!’ They forged my mum’s signature [for mandatory parental consent], and pushed me in front of the cameras.
Ward didn’t win the competition, but Vivien’s Model Agency picked her up after seeing a small picture of her in [Kurv], a quarterly, internationally focused, Australian produced, Fashion Arts Beauty Culture and Style magazine.
Career
At only sixteen, Ward was the youngest model to be listed by American Vogue as one of the nine “It Girls” in the modeling world. She has been in shows for designers such as Versace, Gucci, Chanel, Valentino, Alexander McQueen, and many more. Ward has also graced magazine covers such as Vogue, W, and TIME Magazine’s Style and Design issue. In September 2004, at the age of 16, Ward became the youngest fashion model on the cover of the American edition of Vogue and was the first model to appear on the cover of Teen Vogue magazine. She is the first model since Kate Moss to be the face for Calvin Klein’s perfume “Obsession Night for Men” along with Philadelphia male model, Drew Keilt.

To date Ward’s clients have included Balenciaga, Burberry, Calvin Klein, Christian Dior, Dolce & Gabbana, Hermès, Jean-Paul Gaultier, Jil Sander, Karl Lagerfeld, Louis Vuitton, Prada, Rochas, Swarovski, Valentino and Yves Saint-Laurent, and, altogether, Ward has appeared on 61 covers of Vogue magazine worldwide.
British photographer Nick Knight stated, “Gemma is one of the very, very few models who look as though they come from another dimension.” Fashion designer Lazaro Hernandez of Proenza Schouler told Teen Vogue in February 2006 that, “She looked like no one else at the time. She was this alien, and fashion is always looking for newness.” Her look inspired a new generation of baby doll-like
models such as Vlada Roslyakova, Heather Marks, and Jessica Stam.
In
Allure magazine, Ward is described as “the model of the moment.” Allure’s creative director Paul Cavaco knows why: “We went through a period that was very va-va-voom, but now the pendulum has swung back. Gemma is ethereal, not earthy.” Photographer Michael Thompson says, “She’s an exotic blonde, the rarest of creatures.”
Ward has long aspired to pursue acting and drama is a passion that she has held since she was a child. She has been cast in Australian director Elissa Down’s upcoming film The Black Balloon also starring Toni Collette and Rhys Wakefield, as the girlfriend of a boy whose brother has autism. The Black Balloon had its world premiere at the Berlin International Film Festival in Germany in February 2008, where it received a Crystal Bear as the best feature-length film in the Generation 14plus category. She was also cast opposite Liv Tyler in the suspense thriller The Strangers as one of the three masked intruders, “Doll Face”. She also appeared in the music video for “Daughters” by John Mayer.
Ward appeared on the cover of the first issue of
Vogue India in 2007; photographed by famed photographer Patrick Demarchelier. This is the second time Ward has appeared on an inaugural issue—the first time being the first-ever cover of Vogue China in 2005.
In July 2007, earning at an estimated total of $3 million in the past 12 months, Forbes named her tenth in the list of the
World’s 15 Top-Earning Supermodels.
Personal life
Ward lives in New York and is close friends with fellow models Lily Donaldson, Caroline Winberg, Daria Werbowy, and Lily Cole.
In early 2008, Ward was reported to have been seeing actor Heath Ledger after media articles linked the two together at end of 2007 holiday celebrations, shortly before Ledger’s untimely death of an accidental drug overdose on January 22.

[Week3] What type of learner are you?


▶ What type of learner are you?
I am so-called 'Enjoying Learner'. I like to learn things by listening to music, watching historical movies, or experiencing by myself. Of course, it is difficult to learn English. So I try not to get stressed by learning English. Instead I keep trying to enjoy learning it. So I improve my listening skill by watching my favorite English drama without subtitle. It really helped me a lot.


▶ Tell us about the results of three different tests.
I try to handle things with due regard for the other person’s feelings, because I generally listen to other people's idea. I can lead group discussion. I am Sociable, popular, sympathetic. I also responsive to praise and criticism. Finally I am responsive and responsible.

▶ Are these results surprising or confirming you?

Actually this test did surprise me, because it really explained my personality well. I generally feel concern for what others think, which is not that independent. I always care about what other people think about me. I think this is very bad habit.

▶ What did you learn about this activity?
The result was absolutly right. It explained me in everyway. Actually when I took this test, I was worrying because I didn't know about myself. Which means I not sure what I am. But After I saw the result, it feels like I am realizing myself!

[ Diary] FRESHMEN & SOPHOMORE

We had meeting with senior students last night just like one week ago. This time only freshmen and sophomore had attended. These day I have great time with my classmates. We know each other well, and intimate with all of my classmates. But it is really difficult to intimate with sophomores. So it wasn't that fun as I expected.
My mom kept calling me to return to home early. But I don't know how to tell head senior 'I should go home!' It made me annoying.


Thank god it's Saturday!

[Week2] What type of English teacher do you want to be?

What type of English teacher do you want to be? Describe an idealistic figure of English teacher in your mind and explain why.

I really want to be a pratical teacher. It is true that teaching grammers and testing vocabulary will be good for the students. But it is no use in practical situation. Korean students, including me, don't understand English conversation and can't speak even a short english word. They should be exposed to must-use-English situation. So in the future, I will train students to speak confidentally and loudly. Even his or her sentence will be grammatically wrong but I will praise them and encourage them to speak English.

[ Diary ] first meeting with seniors and classmates


Gee~
I had the first meeting with almost all of seniors and classmates last night. There were so many people at the meeting, including freshmen, coming-back students, major-changed students, transfer students, and almost all of seniors.
Unexpectedly I had really fun last night. Though I don't like to drink SOJU that much, it was interesting to meet my senior students. Because they were much older than I, and some of them already became teacher, I heard.
To talk about SOJU, I must not drink any alcohol for few month for health problem. It was hard to reject senior students' asking SOJU. But fortunately, somehow I returned to home earlier than other classmates. What a relief!!
