Teaching can be a challenging but wonderfully rewarding career. It’s easy to get lost in the hustle and bustle of the everyday repetitiveness. This Valentine’s Day I challenge you to remember why you decided to teach in the first place. Take the time to celebrate your love of teaching!
Here are a few great reasons why you should be proud to be a teacher!
- You make an impact on your student’s lives! Our students are all super busy with their lives. Many of them work full-time jobs, have families, and are studying on top of everything else. As an instructor, you are creating learning opportunities that may change their lives forever.
- You can help bring the spark back! Many students can become easily frustrated when learning new things. As an instructor, you are able to support them through these difficult times and see them achieve what they thought they couldn’t.
- You are able to watch your students grow academically. Watching them from the beginning of the term to the end brings so much satisfaction as you see the changes that have occurred in that short period of time.
- You inspire others just by being you.
- You get to teach!!!! Sharing your knowledge with others is the best part of being a teacher! Know that your expertise and skills will go on to make the future a better place for our students!
