Why I Want to Become a Teacher?!

Today we were asked why we wanted to be teachers. My answer to this is endless but I'll give you the short and sweet version.

I want a career that has the potential to make a significant difference in the lives of others. If I manage to improve even one kids life in all of my time as a teacher, I'll consider that a great success.

I didn't have the easiest time in high school. I was teased for being the fat kid and constantly had my sexuality questioned by my peers. If it werent for a couple of the teachers I had, I would be a very different person today. Seeing first hand the positive effect that good teachers can have has made me want to be a teacher.

Long story short; I would like to make a difference with my work.
