I have always seen myself as an educator and now at the age of 32 I am a preschool teacher. I love being able to connect to young children and to be able to observe the children 's actions, and know what they do and don’t like and what goes through their minds. I am slowly learning what’s going through their minds when they’re listening to their teacher speaking to them. I like the quiet, musically I need to have music playing or I get bored and I tend to overthink, interpersonal I like being organized but, people have their own expectations for what is considered “organized” I have my own terms or ways of being organized and that’s how I like it, spatial …show more content…
I am one that tends to ponder and I am curious i’m open to the idea of learning and I want to learn more but, sometimes I wasn’t motivated I like to learn about new things. Also in a way I like to be organized it may not be to the expectations of others but, it’s how I choose to order things it may not be in a binder with dividers or neatly organized by date in a notebook but, it’s taking notes when I know that I don’t understand something.

During my senior year in highschool I went back to observe that class several times and each time I got even more used to the children and my want for learning more about habits of children grew more. After I graduated highschool I went to edgecombe Community College and studied psychology along with parenting and child development classes. I went there for about six years and earned my teaching degree. I took three years and I worked as a teacher 's assistant. After those three years I got a recommendation from my instructor and I got this job here. The kids come in each day ready to learn something new and remember some things that we do in class. Other times we have to work on it and try to get the children to retain the information we are giving them. I have developed some slight symptoms of obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD). I like everything to be organized and that is how it has always been since my junior year in high school it can be the slightest thing a stack of papers not neatly stacked or when typing on the computer as I am now and the lines not being equal to one another. In some ways these symptoms have held me back by having to slow down and take attention to things that
