My Education As A Positive Influence Of Education

Education is important to me, because education opens doors for people to be able to get further in life. Education lets people have to opportunity to learn things they actually have interest in or have a passion to do. It leads to better advances one could make at their own extent

I’ve always aspired to be a teacher. Growing up I wasn’t the smartest kid, and honestly my teachers weren’t very much help with that. Truly, as a struggling student I felt that when I had a bad teacher, there was no chance for me. So ever since I was young, I wanted to grow up to be that change, I didn’t want any struggling student to feel like I did.

Education has played a major role in my life. Growing up I was fortunate enough to have been taught and guided by some truly inspirational teachers, and I appreciate the effect they have had on my life and the choices I made subsequently. My passion for working with students extends from my desire to emulate these role models and inspire others the way I was. This passion for being an educator/mentor has resulted in me having gained a lot of experience in education that will help me in this role as a UW Academy TA.

For me, the decision to become a teacher is more of a way of life than a career. I have always loved school, practicing at being school marm from a young age, and voraciously devouring every shred of education offered me in my career as a student. If it were possible, I would be a student for the rest of my life. And then I still would not have learned enough. As a teacher, I hope to instill this appetite for knowledge in secondary students. They are, after all, the future leaders of the world, and what better place to expand the minds of the generations to come than here in Appalachia where education programs, especially the sciences, which I plan to teach, are poorly funded and children’s dreams

I have known from a young age I wanted to become a teacher when I grew up. Throughout high school, the passion I have

I have been working on my academic career for many years now. I am currently in my third year of community college, and have come across multiple teachers who have helped and inspired me in many ways. A teacher not only teaches the content of their course, but life skills as well. They are kind, caring, considerate, and understanding of their students. A teacher who goes above and beyond for their students is one that will make a difference. One teacher who I believe has made all the difference to me, was my accounting professor.

I thought very highly about teachers and education; to me, being a teacher was the best profession to be in. As I got older, I started to look deeper into the idea of being an educator, and my desire to become a teacher grew. My mother had a huge

Education is very important in the sense that in today’s society, there is not much success without education. Education allows us to grow and learn intellectually. It gives us the ability to enhance our perception of the world as we see it, and construct our

My desire to become a teacher began while I was in junior high school however; my family, friends, and coaches basically turned me against it. They said it was a jobless market with no future. At that age, those people were very impressionable on my decisions, and because of this I became disillusioned about my career, and at that point I just knew I wanted to attend college.

Education is a very important part of society. I feel that it should teach children how to function in a society, and learn the basics they will need to expand on for the rest of their life. I feel that it is used to teach moral, and ethical standards of living. The schools are used to help the children learn to function in life, and achieve the goals of their choosing. Education is important because without it I firmly believe that society would be a very savage institution. With the things that we teach in today’s schools we give the power to know the basics such as reading, writing, and math but we also give them the ability to function in a society. As a teacher I hope to set my student of fire. I want to see them come alive with a desire to want everything that is out there for them. I want to be able to make a difference in just one person’s life. If I can do this I would feel I have done what I am supposed to do. I want my students to know the world is theirs to take and do with it whatever they may choose.

I believe education is one of the most important tools a person can have in life. Every child deserves to receive the best education possible.  It has always been my passion to help each child discover their individual God given gifts and talents and to reach their full potential.

Education is important not only to maintain daily life, but also to become someone who contributes to society. Without education people have no chance to impact the lives of others in their own community. I want to give the children I teach a chance to give back to their community and society.

When you compare the world I come from to the world of some others, I came from an exceptional world. Coming from a home with both parents, exceptional neighborhood, and growing up in church all my life has taught me many lessons in life that eventually influence many of my decisions. Where I come from has influenced me a lot. While I did grow up in a stable home, I also experienced many bad things in different surroundings in my life that have influenced me to focus on my education and make a difference in my community. I spent many summers staying with my grandmother who lived in a rough neighborhood. Spending time in that neighborhood during a number of summers have exposed me witnessing the struggle of many different people and also seeing people like my own brother be badly affected by his environment in a rough neighborhood being lead to make bad decisions in life. Seeing my brother drop out of high school, join a gang, and eventually end up in bad area in his life influenced me to pursue my education and go to college to be the best I could be so I wouldn't end up in the same position that he did. Not only did that experience influence me to want to pursue the best education I could but it also made me want to be able to use my education and life experiences to mentor others and show them the importance of pursuing an education and careers.

The teacher that stands out most in my head is my eleventh grade English teacher. She had a liberal arts background, and enjoyed the classic American writers; Hemingway, Steinbeck, what have you. She was in the class of teachers who was more impressed by actions and honesty
