others my age may dislike kids and the supposed annoyances they bring, I always have and continue to love kids. From their curious minds that soak up new information like a sponge, to their bright-eyed imagination, and their ability to find joy in anything.

That may sound redundant, but as a child, my mom worked at

While I was observing, I noticed the teacher took a holistic approach towards the three-year-old children’s wellness. For starters, the environment was very clean. The teacher made sure the students put all the toys away in bins and everything was placed where it belonged. For example, the teacher told a student to put the doll back where it belonged, so that the seating area was not cluttered with toys. The environment provided a learning area, as well as a place for playing with toys. For instance

A teacher is not what I have always wanted to be. As a matter of fact, it wasn't until I had taken several of my general studies classes that I made a commitment to teach.

However even the teachers that don’t make up stories spend all their time trying to persuade reckless people, instead of those who take study seriously.

These teachers claim that if people will follow them these teachers will show them exactly what will happen in their futures. They
