Why I want to be a Teacher
In the following paper, I will discuss my reasons for wanting to become a teacher. I will also describe my ideas of the role of the teacher, the students, and the curriculum. Finally, I will discuss my own strengths and weakness and how I can improve up the latter.
It all boils down to respect and a feeling of passion. I’ve been in search of those two things for as long as I can remember. I’ve tried my hand at all different types of clubs, activities, classes, and social interactions. Nothing, and I do mean nothing, has ever come so close to giving me the same sense of hope and adoration that cultivating youthful knowledge has.

If I were able to say that I made a difference in just one child’s life, then everything I worked for would have been achieved. I guarantee, every time I tell a person that I am majoring in education or that I want to be an elementary school teacher, there initial response is almost always, “Why?”.

It has to do with the feeling a person gets when they see that spark of understanding in a child’s eyes. It is a limitless career that brings more rewards to the table than even the most prestigious of jobs could ever think to
