Teaching is important because students need people who enjoyed teaching and helping people follow their dream. Even when students are young they have dreams and to complete those dreams they need teacher to help them learned and encourage them to follow their dreams. Being a teacher is more than teaching students their subjects, it helping follow their dreams, find their passion, and showing them they can do anything if they tried hard enough. We need more teachers like that, not ones that just come to school and teach the standards. We need teacher who find a way to teach a standard in a way students will understand and enjoy. This is one of my goals as an educator, creating lesson plans that are informative and fun; a way for them to have fun while learning, As teacher we need to find a way to educate our students in a way they will all understand, creating lesson plans that are challenging. However, not too challenging that the students will not understand or too easy the students will get bored, we need to find the balance between the two. Which is one of the hardest one thing a teacher will have to deal with, making sure no students get behind but not being able to slow down. It why one of my goals as teacher is creating lesson plans that will get students evolve in the learning. It also our job to make sure we cover all subjects. This year when I did my observation in a classroom, and in my field experience class I learned that some teachers will not teach some
My educational goals were to get a certificate in Health Information Technology as a certified coder. But I change my mind and decided to get my associates degree because it provides me with more opportunities in the field. I can choose many different careers such as health information analyst, insurance claims analyst, records technician specialist, etc. With this degree I can improve my family financial situation and be an example to my children that if you put your mind to it, you can achieve anything.
Why is teaching an important profession to me? Life is about something, but what it is about for me it is the passing of knowledge that will make society move forward. Without the teacher, we would be in the dark, because, the light of someone teaching would not be. We would not advance as a society, on Medicare or agricultural advances.
For my educational plans, I have a clear understanding and vision of where I want to go and who I have the desire to be. For now, I would like to graduate with my Associates in Arts degree in Nursing from Indian River State College. I believe Indian River State is an excellent place to begin my journey and recieve my education in order to better prepair myself for what is yet to come. After I recieve my Associates degree from Indian River, I plan to transfer to the University of South Florida in order to extend my education and potentially recieve my Bachelors and Masters of Science degree in Nursing.

Being able to achieve a goal is an amazing feeling. Achieving a goal feels like you are on top of the world, like nothing can touch you. However, with most goals there is a challenging road ahead to reaching the goal. For example, education goals are very important, these types of goals can keep a person on track. I like to set a academic goal every year, for instance, maintaining a certain GPA through the entire year. For others it maybe turning in all assignments, or being on time to every class. These are examples of small education goals. My big education goal is to go to college, because I know by going to college I can have a better opportunity for a great future. Getting the best possible knowledge of the world is very important to me.
My educational goal is to be the first child in my family to graduate with a degree at the age of 42 and continue to get my BA in Social Work. My passion and career goal is to help those that are less fortunate and have a drug addiction problem. The steps I have made are being enrolled in the Human Services program at Chemeketa Community College, in the Addictions Field. I currently have one year left and start my practicum in the Spring of 2017. As a single mother of a six-year-old daughter and twenty-year-old son, they motivate me to become a better role model in their life. Not only do they motivate me, but I hope they become motivated by seeing my accomplishment and will attend college to become something amazing as well. My past life was
After receiving my Bachelor of Arts in Elementary Education, I plan to further my education through UNC Charlotte’s M.Ed. in Special Education, Major in Academically or Intellectually Gifted program. I then aspire to teach in CMS schools, serving the needs of Academically or Intellectually Gifted children specifically. My career goals in the field of education are to start out teaching my own class and gaining invaluable experience in the classroom. After a numbers of years working with a large group of my own students, I strive to move to a position in which I am part of a program targeted specifically at meeting the academic needs of AIG students.
Reflecting back to my senior year, when I had to make the decision of which college I will attend in the fall of 2015. In order to make my decision I had to take into account of what my educational goal were, which career path I wanted to pursue, and how the university will help me to achieve my goals.

“The goal of education is not to increase the amount of knowledge but to create the possibilities for a child to invent and discover, to create men who are capable of doing new things.” This is a quote that can easily be applied to my life. Through kindergarten to my junior year in high school, I was just like all of the other kids. Pursuing my education to one day be able to provide for my family. However, those days of being a kid ended sooner than expected. Over the summer before this semester began, I was kicked out of my house for something that I could not help, the person I had fallen in love with. I was forced to grow up only having my junior year of high school completed. I began working at a full time job as an assistant manager in hopes of being able to provide for myself. Through this course, I was able to balance everything that I had going on while still completing assignments and learning about the research aspect of writing an essay.
My primary objective as an educator, both as a tutor when I was still at high school and as a TA/lab instructor later at university, is smoothing and accelerating the learning process. If learning is a self-process of making a mental representation or image of a concept, then I, as a teacher, try my best to lighten up that fundamental image and figure out where that image is still dark or blur and needs further improvement or clarification. My other teaching objective is inspiring and motivating students to go through the self-regulated part of the learning process; not to be scared of decoding what looks complicated, and not to give up until they come to an understanding of any given problem and figure out a solution.
Fifty percent of new teachers quit the profession within the first five years. Mrs. Prioreschi shared this with me when we started talking about my future career goal to eventually become a teacher. This statistic is not surprising when you consider that teaching is often connected with long hours and low pay, but it is surprising when you considered all of the joys of being a teacher. While teaching may be seen as a low-paying, thankless job by some, those who stick with the profession see that it has the potential to be one of the most rewarding jobs there is, as I have been able to see thus far. At first glance, a teacher's hours are long and the pay is low. While teachers do spend a significant amount of time on work outside of the actual work day, they are rewarded with holidays and summers off. While teacher pay is low, as a teacher gains years of experience and takes additional courses, the pay increases. Very few jobs offer the regular raises in pay many teachers receive. Another joy of being a teacher is that most find personal fulfillment in this profession. If you teach a subject you are passionate about, you get to spend every day talking about something you love and, hopefully, passing that passion on to others. For example, if you are a creative person, like Mrs. Prioreschi, you will find fulfillment designing creative lesson plans, decorating your classroom and putting together bulletin boards. Teachers are required to regularly participate in professional
Becoming a teacher was my childhood plan because I loved school as a child. However, I attended Bakersfield College for seven years and kept changing my major. First it was Criminal Justice, Sociology, and finally Business. I had no longer considered becoming a teacher and those dreams were long gone. I managed a property in Rosedale and my son went to a great school. Therefore, a degree in Business was what I was destined for. Nonetheless, life changes and so do we. I became a single mother again at twenty-nine years old and had a little girl. Having my daughter brought out a different side of me because I could see myself in her. This is when I began to remember my true dreams and I began to look into it. I felt that she would be so proud to have a mother who’s a teacher because I always loved and admired my teachers. Also, I had to start over and not having a degree was very difficult as I tried looking for employment. The joy of having my daughter was tainted with all the new struggle of not having a job and being single parent to a twelve year old boy as well. These were the moments that led me to begin looking into an accelerated program and it led me to Fresno Pacific University.
Teachers have a responsibility to, not only their students, but the community they teach in and the learning community they work with. Teachers need to understand their responsibilities inside and outside of the classroom to truly be great teachers. As a future teacher, I also have to understand my responsibilities of understand the foundations of knowledge to create the best learning environment for my future students, community and learning community.
