Why I Teach:
“We often tell people that teaching is rewarding, but we do not always see the reward of a day’s work in our profession. We do not see final products like the construction of a church or a successful surgery that has saved a life. As teachers, we might not immediately see the fruits of our labor because the work we do is gradual. We lay the foundation for a child’s growth by touching her heart, expanding her mind, and helping her find her voice. Teaching is a labor of love that requires us to believe that we are making a difference. We have to trust that the knowledge we impart, the skills we teach, and the behaviors we model will make lasting impressions on our students. I trust that I do this. It is why I teach.”
