Summary

I am a potential teacher majoring in Human Development and Family Sciences, pursuing an EC-6 certification. For me, becoming a teacher is more than just educating the future. It is building a trustworthy relationship and bringing joy into the classroom. I have worked with kids throughout most of my life, from babysitting them to tutoring them, and I have found it to be an extremely fulfilling and rewarding position. From having these experiences, I grasped that there is nothing comparable to the feeling of watching a child grow and learn.
