    ED 109

    22 January 2023

    There are many reasons that make me want to become a teacher. The main reason is that I

    want to be able to guide all future generations toward their goals. I also want to help future

    generations discover their goals. I want to be seen as someone who my students can come to for

    help with any of their needs, as well as someone who can inform them from a teaching

    perspective. I want to teach my students the importance of our history and why our ancestors

    truly make us who we are today. I am comfortable working with students with disabilities. I

    worked at a community pool where there were patrons who had disabilities and that experience

    helped me understand that they are humans too with goals like everyone else. By seeing that I

    know that they should not be treated as less than a human created in the eyes of God. I currently

    do not believe I would be prepared to work in a classroom dominated by minority students. I do

    not have a lot of experience with working with minority students, but that does not mean I would

    not be comfortable in that setting. It may take me a while to get adjusted to teaching in a

    classroom dominated by minority students, but I would not be opposed to it. I would be most

    comfortable teaching secondary education students. I expect student performance and behavior

    to be very different for each student. I expect that some students will be harder to work with than

    others. I am prepared to work nights and weekends for my job. I am willing to engage in on-

    going professional development and am planning on continuing my education after finishing my

    college degree. I am comfortable working on a team and do not find it difficult to implement
    team decisions that I do not agree with. What I would not be comfortable with would be

    implementing a team decision, but it does not work as planned. I believe my communication and

    interpersonal skills are strong and will be sufficient enough to be prepared to interact with

    parents and other school community members.
