As a teacher, you become a child’s role model. I see the profession of teaching as a challenge. You are placed in a classroom with the ability to motivate and build more confident young people. Over time you build a connection with the pupils in the classroom and this allows you to motivate them through engaging lessons suited to enhance their learning experience. Through various opportunities, I have had I have been able to reflect on each of them to build on knowledge that I will use when it is my chance to educate young people. There are very few teachers that have made a difference to me and have shaped me as a person, these are the teachers that I will always remember. That’s my number one priority as a teacher. To have an impact on children’s lives would mean so much to me. The passion I have for teaching and making a difference in children’s lives will lead them to have a positive perspective on learning through their whole lives. What can I bring to the profession of teaching? The passion and dedication I have to teach and the relationship I form with my pupils will be something rewarding and I can look back on in later life as a massive achievement.
