How do we know if we're doing or not a good job?
That's not very hard.
The first signal is the students' result.
If they are getting good grades, then you're doing a good job.
If they are learning, you're doing a good job.
Sometimes grades don't show any knoledge, but this is the subject for another post.
Another way to know if you're doing a nice job is by the students' feedback.
When they bring you questions and you clear the doubts out or when they change teachers and they say that they miss your way of teaching. Not that there's a right way of teaching, but some students learn better in different ways, so sometimes your way of teaching is better than the others for some people.
Well, I just have to thank my students for giving me such a positive feedback.
Since I started teaching English at a course (February, 2011) I had 7 classes and all of them want me back as a teacher. Some of them left the course that I work at and they still calling me and tell me that they miss me and they miss my classes.
They like the way I work (and that is also a subject for another post) and they tell me that.
I think this is one of the best feelings in the world: Know that people like the result of what you love doing.

So, here is my advice:
Do whatever you love doing, And put tons of effort on it. Do it correctly, so you can be happy and get the results that you expect.
