Why I want to be a teacher
The feeling of knowing that I could help that student understand one thing or more.
I love helping people to learn.
I want to teach social studies to high school students.
To enjoy the warm feeling that I am preparing these children for their future.
To be around children; it seems fun and creative.
To help out the future by making sure the children I teach develop as much as possible in all areas.
I love children.
To play all day and to help children.
I love teaching kids; to help students become leaders.
It’s fun, and I love helping kids and making a difference.
To make a difference in the lives of others, continue learning.
I love being around people.
Fulfilling; the positive influence on high school students’ academics.
To “fix” things for my students that I wasn’t so fortunate to have in my childhood.
To help students think critically and interpret the world around them.
To inspire a lifelong love for learning.
To change at least one life.
I’ve had so many great teachers I’d like to emulate.
Learning should be fun and interactive, not just bubble sheets and word banks – I want to change that.
