Why I am Becoming a Teacher Part Three

Let us be honest. No one truly know what they want to do growing up. It's a rough patch in everyone's life when they are approaching their senior year and then all of a sudden the realization  that you have had twelve years of schooling to prepare you for the four years that actually count. No pressure, it's just four years of dedication to a career field you probably have no experience in and it'll only cost you around 50,000 give or take depending on the quality of education and major. Good news, theres resources! Personality and knowledge assessments help you figure out what area you would excel in. I took mine in 2009 and it pointed me in the direction of the education. So that gave me tons of clarity! 

Here are a few just in case you or anyone you know needs some peace of mind too!

Why I am Becoming a Teacher Part Two

Part II

I have wanted to be a teacher since the second grade. I grew up in a predominantly Bosnian and Turkish community and was ofter caught teaching English to the other children. Speaking to a few of them twenty years later, brings me so much joy hearing them speak fluently and knowing how I was a part of that fundamental learning. Plus, that was around the time the movie Matilda came out..  and no one can say that Miss Honey didn't make them think of the teaching profession!
