Language IV Class

Why did you choose to be a teacher?

All the time I think about it, I remember a great teacher I had when I was 13 years old. Mrs. Marisol
She was absolutely wonderful not only as a teacher but also as a person as well; in every class she gave her best to make a boring language class into an interesting one.
Unfortunately she became very sick and started skipping classes; I knew it because we used to communicate by emails.
Until one day I received one last email, and she didn’t go back school.
At the end of that year we knew that she had passed away.
I guess she was, and she still is my inspiration.
I wish someday I could be as good as she was.

What tools will a professional in your area need to have in the future?
I think there are two different kinds of teachers:
First, the ones who know a lot, they are the best on what their do.
Those teachers provide the information, and of course his/her students learn the contents, and pass the classes, however for the students, this person will be just one more teacher in their lives.
The other type is the one who provides you more than knowledge, but values, confidence, among others things, as well.
Those people are the ones who became part of your memories.


Question for you guys:
Which kind of teacher would you like to be?
