I never really knew what I wanted to be growing up until the beginning of my senior year when I found myself sitting in a Government class. Many of my peers found the subject quite boring but I on the contrary found it riveting, exciting, and amazing. I truly enjoy learning about government and there’s nothing else that I’d rather do then go on to become a Government teacher. One day I will achieve my future goal of becoming a government teacher, because of the strengths that I have. Some of my strengths would be that I’m a good listener, fast learner and very goal driven. However, I do believe that I have one weakness which is being a perfectionist. In the subject I love most, being government I was always on task and listening. Being a fast learner, I picked up this subject quite easily and I truly enjoyed it. In my government class I …show more content…

Needless to say I always had an A in the class. This wasn’t always the case in my previous classes. My government teacher Mrs. Buitron has greatly impacted my life choices due to her amazing ability to teach. I enjoy her class and the compassion she has for government, and I believe that I have that same compassion. I admire her teaching style and I hope to one day duplicate the way she teaches into my classroom. I want to make an impact on kid’s lives by helping them understand how the government completely works.

Through my on campus experiences I’ve helped assist teachers with things such as grading papers and making copies. When our

I have always had a passion for making a difference in others’ lives. From a young age my aspiration has to become a teacher, but I was not sure what level of education I would be best suited in.

It brought me great joy to see them happy when people cared about them and even simply talked to them. It was not until about the end of my junior year in high school, I decided to explore different areas of education my senior year.

Being involved in the learning process of others is vitally important to me. I believe that as an educator, we have the capability and responsibility to help mold not only students educational goals, but to help mold them into successful adults that sill contribute to society. Many times during my life I have been a teacher, a counselor, a cheerleader and a role model for my students. Every student is at a different point in their learning process and cycle, and a good educator can find that point and capitalize on what the student needs next.

Education is the most important part of a child's development. If we look closer at education, we can see that it is more than just the subjects being taught, it is also the connections the student makes across their life. Schools are the social development grounds for children to teenagers, fostering relationships one will probably never see again in their lifetime. These diverse communities are essential to a child's development, opening their eyes to lives outside their own will create a welcoming environment among students. That is why I feel that the education field is one of the most important jobs in the world.

I never envisioned myself in a professional role that involved me working behind a desk or in an office without constant interactions with others in some capacity. I always saw myself having a career that involved interacting with children and witnessing their eyes light up or that "aha" moment when they learn new concepts. For a while, I was still deciding what career would be the best fit for me, but now I know that seeking to be a teacher is the best fit for me. A career as a teacher is meaningful and will allow me to work directly with children daily. In the role, I will teach them educational and behavioral skills while also being able to provide them with the necessary resources to witness their growth.

My goal in life is to become a teacher who can influence the lives of her students in a positive way. I want to be the teacher they will remember for their entire lives because I helped them become a better person, student, or because I motivated them or encouraged them like no one else could. I feel like my current extracurricular activity at The First Presbyterian Church McKinney could definitely help me fulfill my goals. I am given my own class to teach and care for and at the same time I get to interact and bond with the age group that I one day hope to teach. This allows me to really get an idea of what it would be like when I get to teach my own class and what I can begin looking forward to.

When you consider that I have completed three academic degrees, certification in secondary education, and hundreds of hours of professional development training over my career, it is easy to label me a lifelong learner. However, it is also quite valid to point out that I have spent the majority of my life helping—and leading—others in educational environments and learning situations. When I began teaching full-time, I had already completed more than 10 seasons of collegiate and high school coaching. I had also taught Speech and Human Communication at one of the universities where I coached. All of these leadership experiences taught me the value of planning and preparation.

The purpose of education is to meet this need because without education, our society will not advance but become motionless. This is only accomplished through a quality education.

Throughout my career as an educator, I intend to motivate my student to make their learning experience an enjoyable one. I propose to intrinsically motivate my students over challenging yet supportive tasks and instructions. I aim to utilize supportive and preventive strategies when it comes to dealing with students’ behavior. I expected to achieve this goal by creating a learning environment that is harmless, comfortable, and conducive to learning. If the students do not feel safe in the classroom that will trigger their defense system.
