I think it’s okay to be unsure about future – and this is a fact that can’t be emphasized enough. After all, I’ll now be working for at least the next 40 years of my life! I can’t expect to hit it off right away on the perfect note. Just because I go into a role that doesn’t meet our expectations, doesn’t mean I will be stuck in that role forever. I may work different jobs and discover for myself which line of work truly inspires and enriches my life. This is for me and only for me.
It’s a common thing now that a diploma and place of work are totally different. But I still want to be a teacher. Teachers play vital roles in the lives of the students in their classrooms. Teachers are best known for the role of educating the students that are placed in their care. Beyond that, teachers serve many other roles in the classroom. Teachers set the tone of their classrooms, build a warm environment, mentor and nurture students, become role models, and listen and look for signs of trouble.
And who knows, maybe I’m going to be a head mistress or teacher of the year. I totally agree that life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get.
