Why Teach?
Growing up I always knew I wanted to be a teacher much of that reasoning is due to my mother who's been a teacher ever since I was born. Seeing her in her classroom decorating and forming a bond with her students has always intrigued me. I would always fluctuate between being a pediatric nurse or being an elementary school teacher because both jobs involve working with kids which I consider myself good at and is something I love to do but even when questioning myself about whether or not I was going to be a nurse I always knew in the back of my mind that I was made for teaching and made my decision the beginning of senior year.
I am looking forward to teaching elementary level with second grade being the grade I'd like to specifically teach. I can't wait until I get to build a safe community in my classroom and have the special connections with each student like my mom did. I also look forward to helping the future of our country and basically being the backbone of society!
