Why do you teach?


There are a variety of reasons for why people teach and among those include some of the right reasons for teaching and the wrong ones. I think that it is important to make sure that you are teaching for the right reasons because if you find yourself saying that you are teaching for things that are not meaningful such as summers off and shorter days than you may find that you are in the wrong career and may be fed up with your job quickly.

Some of the good reasons for teaching that I found were:
  • ·      Being able to change the world one child at a time by shaping their future and making it better. If you teach them the basic foundations they need to grow, they can be successful in their future and help to change the world.
  • ·      Contributing to society with teaching values to your students that they can use to go out and become good citizens of the world.
  • ·      You can use teaching as a creative outlet in which your lesson plans can incorporate things that will enable the student to learn in a fun way that will hopefully stick with them for their entire educational future.
  • ·      As a teacher you can guide the students to become empowered, literate, and creative human beings.
