I have always wanted to be an elementary school teacher. When I was young people always asked me what I wanted to be and I was quick to answer, “A teacher”. I had a wonderful 2nd grade teacher that inspired me to be a teacher. I love to see the expression on a child’s face when they get something right and that is one reason I want to become a teacher. I also enjoy being around children.
When I was a student I never really learned all of the Presidents in order and I don’t really remember all of the capitals of the states. So when I become a teacher I want to make sure my students learn these things. I also want to emphasize to them that everything we learn is important. I want to research other teacher’s ways of teaching. I want to get ideas from other teacher’s so I can teach my students the best way possible.
