Why Teach?

"Why teach?"
Here are the top 5 reasons:
1. Desire to work with children
2. Passion
3. Influence of former teachers
4. Desire to serve
5. Practical Benefits
I think these are all key reasons why I want to teach. I have wanted to become a teacher since I was a little girl.  I want to be a teacher because I feel that I have the right personality to be successful in the classroom. I am very passionate, organized, reliable, and trustworthy.  I love working with children and have the desire to make a difference in children's lives. I have had tons of experience teaching children through instructing swimming lessons, coaching skating, babysitting, and working at Mini University.
 I believe that a teacher is a very rewarding career however there will be challenges such as classroom management, social problems, rural and urban challenges, diversity, family and community support, long working hours and stress, and gaining professional empowerment.  These are all challenges I am willing to face.  As a teacher, it is crucial to be a positive role model in the community around you!
I am excited to begin my career as a teacher and I am looking forward to helping my students become the people they have always dreamed of becoming!  I have always dreamed of becoming a teacher and soon my dream will come true!
