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.

Hult was my 8th-grade English teacher, and she was the first teacher who made me feel like I could do something with my life. She was personable, gave us fun seats, let us doodle, and engaged with the students' interests and ideas. She supported me and my writing and made me realize that, yes, I want to be a teacher. If I can have this amazing impact on someone, it will make it all worth it. I want to provide a safe space for students who are struggling, at home or at school. To make my classroom a place where a student can feel comfortable and express themselves however they feel fit. That's what Mrs. Hult did for me, and I can only hope that I can use her memory to do the same for others. I am still learning, but in my experiences as a camp counselor last year, I can confidently say that my positive attitude toward giving children a space where they can be authentically themselves is a success story. It was a good experience for what I hope my future holds. My goal is to ensure that education is both engaging and inclusive for everyone. If learning is fun and the student feels safe, I think schools will become a happy place for students once again. I used to dread school, but with my newfound confidence in making students' lives better than my own, I don't mind all the work I need to

My goal in life is to become a teacher who can influence the lives of her students in a positive way.

As educators, we go to school and are trained for one purpose, to ensure that every child has the right to learn and gets a quality education. Being a teacher, I have to teach each and every one of my students that they are unique and capable of doing anything they put their mind to. I know as teachers, we have a big impact on our students both inside and outside the classroom, and that they are our future. It is my desire as an educator to ensure that I create a safe environment where my students are comfortable and motivated to learn. There are three elements that I believe are useful in creating and maintaining an environment as such, I believe that each child should be comfortable to express their feelings, along with showing their talents and abilities, so that they are not held within any limitations.

I believe a career in education is a worthwhile vocation for this cause. In our competitive society it is important for young people to not only receive a solid education, but to work with someone who is conscious of and responsive to their personality. A student is influenced by his environment, and patterns his behavior to match the individuals closest to him. I believe that each student is a unique individual who needs a secure, caring, and thought-provoking environment in which to develop and mature emotionally, intellectually, physically, and socially.

Art education is an essential for every child’s wholesome development because it encompasses tangibility, expression, interpretation, inquiry, diversity, and connections.
