I always make sure at the first class of every semester to acquaint my students of me , and for me this is a very good situation where I can talk about myself . Firstly I will tell them my name , the certificates that I hold which enabled me to teach them this class and what I expect from my students . Then I would began to answer the question which I was asked  starting by saying that the age is not one of the requirements of teaching in any class and that what is important in the teaching process is a strong personality and a good education . Age has never been a factor in the qualification process of a teacher and there are many young teachers who are a very successful teachers for instance Wemerson da Silva Nogueira is a very well known teachers and he is only 29 years old . Also the younger the teacher the better he/her understands the students , we all know that in the current days there are a huge gap between generations , and the younger the teacher means smaller the gap ; and as consequence a better teaching process . Plus the new generation that I belong to understands the value of using technology in class and outside the class and knows exactly how to employ technology in the teaching process .
