Astral Projection

1. I have now been a teacher for 2 years and am currently teaching at Einstein middle school.

2. I knew I wanted to teach ever since I was a young girl. I would love playing with my friends, and would always pretend as if I was a teacher and my friends were students. I even had a little blackboard that I would write on and pretend that I knew what I was saying. Eventually I grew a passion for teaching and as I grew older people would always tell me that when I explained things to them they understood better when I explained then when an actual teacher did.

3. I would advise undergraduates to always be learning new and different ways of teaching each and everyday that they wake up. The teaching world is always changing and growing. If possible try and student teach, and work with kids in different areas other than teaching. Become a camp counselor or even become a tutor. The more time you are able to work with kids the better teaching skills you will have in the future. Like the old saying goes practice makes perfect. This is especially true in the teaching field.

4. Becoming a teacher has greatly affected my family and personal life. I am a lot more organized now. I have a lot more patience in dealing with personal issues. I even have more patience with my younger brother. I look at the world in a different light and see things that I would never have if I hadn't become a teacher. I don't take things for granted anymore and, I know that if one tries hard enough they can accomplish things that would never seem possible.

5. There are many things I find rewarding about teaching. I find that if I had a bad night the day before, I can come into class and the children
