Mr. Zhangying, my practice tutor, who gave me the ideas to understand English teachers deeply, and supported me with necessary theory background. Professor Zhang Keding, my linguistic teacher, who helped me comb through each chapter and offered invaluable input. You used a gentle, yet firm approach to make me see areas of my study that could be strengthened.
