Teaching

                                                             Teaching

Teaching I have learned can be one of the most difficult professions!
It can also be one of the most rewarding professions!
I am so thankful for the teaching positions I have had they have greatly impacted my life.
They have shown me how to be a better teacher and that there are many aspects to being a good teacher its not just the ability to instruct. Its so much more then that its being a friend, disciplinarian, counselor, provider, entertainer, self esteem coach. It has been difficult going from one position to  another I so long to be in a school that I can call home. Its difficult when you get attached to students and teachers and then for whatever reason budget, administration, or other things cause you to have to move on. Don't get me wrong I love being a guest teacher you get to meet new kids travel around to different classrooms, work with all different age groups and unique students. It can be nice not to have to worry about setting up a classroom, dealing with paperwork or the other things teachers have to deal with on a daily basis. Yet I still long to have my own classroom where on a daily basis I am greeting my students, challenging them academically and socially. Forming those special relationships with them and trying to make a difference in there lives anyway I can!
