Passion to Teach

Why I want to be a teacher? Good question. I was in grade school, and my favourite 2nd grade  teacher, was the most amazing teacher in the hole wide world!!! One day we were given a task to dress up what you want to be oneday, with no doubt I knew what I wanted to be. It was my turn to introduce my future, and my teacher asked why? And I answered: "Teacher you inspired me to be a inspiration to others one day".Will never forget that day and still today while I'm studying, the thought stays with me to achieve it one day. I think the characteristics should include the following: To be a leader, have patience, be an inspiration, be able to communicate, must build a me-you-relationship, must be able to discipline, must be fair, must have strong moral character, friendly, intelegent, care for learners. All that characteristics will suit me perfectly because my passion for education can be seen as love.
