Jenny Peters, writer of the article Confessions of An Elementary School Teacher, observes that it is indeed a “challenging career” that in the end has “immeasurable rewards” (1). However, no matter what you have to do, it seems as though those rewards overrule anything and everything as long as your heart is in it, not only for the students, but for the drive to teach them and lead them to bigger and brighter futures.

  • The Value of a Good Teacher

    836 Words  | 2 Pages

    “This is the value of the teacher who looks at a face and says there’s something behind that and I want to reach that person, I want to influence that person, I want to encourage that person, I want to enrich, I want to call out that person who is behind that face, behind that color, behind that language, behind that tradition, behind that culture. I believe you can do it. I know what was done for me.” (Maya Angelou) America is yearning for teachers who are passionate about their jobs. America is desperate for a change in teaching. This generation needs teachers who wants to influence their students, creating something so wonderful, and making a diamond out of the ruff.

    I have dealt with my Mom’s strong belief in the Christian Faith since from when I can remember. She grew up in a strict Christian household and has been a devoted follower all her life. She passed this strong belief onto my brother, my sister, and I. Right when I was born I was baptized and was plunged into catholic school for ten years starting at age five. My Mom never allowed me to switch schools. Growing up, I never thought of religion as a big deal or even something that I was interested in. Christianity was just something that was present in my everyday life and I learned to accept like I did doing chores and going to bed on time. When I realized how much of a hold it had on me in middle school, I began to dislike it and deny faith. I started to identify as an atheist after exploring the concept of religion.

  • My Teaching Philosophy Statement

    As an education major at State College, I’ve decided to become a teacher for several reasons. As I progressed through elementary, middle, and high school, many of my teachers were great role models for me. This has inspired me to become a role model for someone in the near future. My love for science and math has also influenced my desire to teach and make a difference in a child’s life. I want to teach students the subjects that I love so much. I want the feeling that I helped a child accomplish or learn something they couldn’t understand. One of the main reasons I want to become an educator is because I feel education has really lost teachers who truly love teaching and those who truly love teaching and those who have the desire to make a difference. I feel I can really help make a difference in the education world and bring back the love to teach.

  • Teaching: My Passion And Passion In Special Education

    My interest in teaching started at a young age. I used to watch my teachers in awe as they were able to find new ways to get their students involved and excited to learn. Their enthusiasm to teach was so inspiring. I would often find myself using that same fervor as I grasped each concept. I, then, was able to relay it to my fellow classmates as a peer tutor. To this day, becoming a teacher is a passion that flows through me. However, my enthusiasm and passion are not the only reasons I would be a good teacher. I aspire to see a student’s ability to grasp the knowledge they never before understood. I aspire to see a student succeed at something they never thought they ever could. I aspire to not only support students with academic skills, but also with life lessons about the value of community, pride in one’s own ethnicity, good citizenship, sportsmanship, and more. I aspire to play a fundamental role in ensuring that all students from all cultures and learning abilities have the opportunity to be guided in a positive learning

  • The Reasons I Pursue Teaching

    One time as I flipped through my mom’s teacher devotional, I came across a verse that said, “Some rely on stocks and bonds in order to gain security. Others invest in children’s lives and are builder’s for eternity.” I did not realize the significance of this verse until my uncle asked me why I wanted to be a teacher. I struggled for a second, and then I simply replied with that verse I had read years before. Now, though, I ask myself do I really know why I want to invest my life into the betterment of our future – why do I want to be a teacher. Many reasons pop into my head, yet only a few really explain my desire to teach. I want to be a teacher not just because of the benefits of the educator’s lifestyle, but also because of the blessed joy of working with children, the fact I will continue to grow and learn, and the opportunity to make a positive impact on a child.
