    I want to study early childhood education because I feel that I have what it takes to help young children open their minds to learn and engage while also helping them explore their imagination. I know it is not an easy task but our children need to start at a young age to get a head start to their lives and so it can build towards their bright future. Importantly I want to explore and get into the childhood education program so that I can help parents also, because once children are able to start learning at a very young age, their parents can benefit from that development and principles to go along with the teaching goals that we set as childhood educators. Childhood education is essential part of the education institutions of our public entities…

I knew I wanted to be a teacher since I was young because I had a teacher that I had a close relationship with and made me love school.
