Trip to College It has been my dream since Elementary School to become an Elementary School teacher. The decision to attend college has not always been an easy decision. I have many goals to obtain my college degree. I have had many conversations about attending college. Some conversations being very helpful and persuasive, some being very negative and nerve wrecking. The school that I chose to attend in the end was Alabama State University. I promised myself that this school will make me the best teacher since I chose my favorite teacher. Choosing my career, that was not entirely easy. Back in Elementary School, I had a couple of teachers that were very good to me. They are who began to make my mind think and wonder about if this job would make a good career for me. It was not only my Elementary School teachers who helped convince me. There were some middle school teachers and a couple high school teachers who persuaded me. These teachers taught me with passion in their hearts. There was nothing but patience and love in their teaching. They taught me the different ways you can teach and get the lesson across to your students. I have kept their ways of teaching in mind for the days when it is time to work towards my degree. Watching my different teachers over the years have given me different reasons to want this career. Becoming what I wanted to be was the main goal. The goal was always to become what I wanted to no matter what it took. Being a teacher, I knew would be a
I would like to be a teacher because I have always been the one that’s eager to make a difference, I want to be the teacher that children remember for the rest of their life even after school. The love that I have always had for children is what drew me to teaching and the love that I have for learning is where I got my passion to teach. I have been inspired by many teachers in the past who has had a positive impact on my life and these are the ones that I have viewed as a mentor, leader and even as a parent. One particular reason that I chose to pursue a career in the education field is because I believe that when teachers work individually and collectively they have the ability to improve and change the world.
There are many reasons why this path is best for me. To start with, I enjoy working with children and I have taken classes such as a career in education. This class allowed me to go help teachers in their classrooms and it gave me first-hand experience in teaching. This class has taught me such skills as different methods of teaching, how to deal with children better, and my priorities as being a teacher. The year I spent in my careers
The career I have chosen is an early, middle years Physical Education and Geography teacher. This career was a perfect fit for me given my four years of work at a summer day camp, as well as my eight years of hockey coaching. Working with children and helping them develop, is not only something I enjoy doing, but is my passion. I simply could not imagine my life any other way.
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 am Brianna Downer and my goal is to become an elementary school teacher. Becoming a teacher is not something that happens overnight. This is a process where you have to know the requirements, challenges, and also the pros and cons of being a teacher. My goal will be achieved at the end of my journey.
Everyone has an idea of what they would like to be when they grow up. Some say they would like to be a Doctor or a Nurse or a Mechanic, there are many types of careers anyone can choose from. I chose to pursue a Language Arts Middle School teaching career. Many people say that a teaching career does not make a lot of money, but money is not the main thing in choosing a career, picking what you like and being what you like is the main goal. I chose to be a teacher because when I was in Middle School I had a Language Arts teacher named Mr. Tomov, I never really liked him as a teacher due to the fact that he never made class interesting. The school year went along and one day he called me to the side and asked me what my purpose was. I asked him
When I was little some of my closest family members were educators, so naturally I wanted to become a teacher when I grew up. Although, as I grew older I changed my mind about what I wanted as my profession a lot. I went from wanting to become a teacher to wanting to pursuing a career in the fashion industry as a fashion designer, and then I wanted to become a FBI Agent. I probably changed my mind a million times, before I realized that I wanted to become a teacher. I arrived at this decision in high school, more specifically during the first semester of eleventh grade.
Choosing a career is not an easy task. As a child, I never knew what I eventually wanted to grow up to be, but in the back of my mind I would always say a teacher because I come from a long history of teachers in my family. One of my grandpas was a high school math teacher along with coaching the football team. My aunt is an elementary school substitute teacher specializing in special needs students, while my uncle is a high school history teacher. While, my father is a physical education teacher who has taught at both the elementary and high school level. Growing up around so many teachers made me think I was destined to be a teacher, although at the time, I was not passionate about it, until my senior year of high school. Senior year I decided to take a child development course where I had the opportunity to volunteer daily at an elementary school. I quickly fell in love with the students and decided that inspiring young children to succeed was my calling. It was this opportunity that made me decide that becoming a teacher was my destiny. Last year I declared as a Child and Adolescent Studies (CHAD) to peruse my dreams of becoming a teacher
I 've chosen the path to becoming a teacher for several reasons. To begin with, as a high school student I was very lucky to have a handful of amazing teachers and coaches who helped me as well as inspired me to become
I chose Education as my career path because I have always wanted to spend my life in a profession that I enjoy and that I want to go to each day and not dread over. I want to teach children to be lifelong learners because that is what I am, and you can never learn to much information. I want children to enjoy learning new things and want to find out new things as they go throughout their own lives, just as I enjoy learning new ways of connecting to and educating them.
In the beginning, I wanted to become an elementary school teacher because I loved being around children. With children, I am particularly more patient and protective because I want them to feel safe. It was not until throughout middle school that I began to admire how teachers became role models for students. It was in my nature that I adored spending time with children; however, I saw that I did not have the same passion that teachers did towards education. At this point, I did not know many other career choices besides the careers I hear about the most, such as lawyers, doctors, firefighters, policemen, and more.
Of all the professions that are available, why did I decide to seek a degree in education? The reason I am aspiring to become a teacher is because of my personal experience as a student. My first day in kindergarten was quite memorable. I walked into a classroom not knowing English. The language barrier hindered my ability to learn the material that was being taught by the teacher. Even though I struggled in school, I was fortunate to have great teachers. Each teacher made a profound impact on my life. As a future educator, my dream is to have the same impact on my own students.
My personal goal is to educate myself, to lead young minds to positive cognitive growth. I will immerse myself into the intricacies of teaching and learning, I am ready for the challenges that come with going back to school, this is a new profession all together, and I know that in order achieve success, I will have to work hard and long. This is my first term, and I have learned much in my class already, and I know that the road ahead will bring a lot more knowledge, and
Overall, making a career choice is very important and can be very stressful. When choosing a career, it is critical that you consider all aspects of the career before choosing it. After my research of the areas of education and training, responsibilities, salary and benefits, and job security, I have concluded that as of now, I want to become an elementary school teacher. I also learned that it may be difficult, but it is a career that I am passionate about and am willing to struggle
I started out my career in the classroom, but experienced a quick burn out and wanted to be in a positive environment to regroup, so I took a position at the Children’s Museum at Cincinnati Museum Center. I quickly became enamored with
