Why do you want to be a teacher?
What are your reasons for wanting to become a teacher? Is it because your mother or ather was a teacher? Or maybe you have been working at a company and your realized later in your career that you just want to help people, or maybe you just want really good health benefits and job security. Whatever reason's someone has for teaching, their all important to today's children. There is a shortage of GOOD teachers out there and we need to start focusing on the ways in which we can improve our education system.
Sometimes our needs tend to outweigh our wants, and people end up teaching as a last resort. This type of teacher will most likely find it hard to inspire, teach or motivate anyone, since its not really what they want to be doing. I think its important to FIND the people who WANT to teach and focus on gettig them into the schools they want, teaching the ages and subjects they want. You can just throw someone into a subject and tell them to teach it, they have to enjoy it in order to be able to teach it effectively.
