Now that I have finished this course, I am really excited about becoming a teacher. It is really exciting for me to think of having my own class, working with children, being able to teach, and getting paid to do all these great things! I am definitely going to stick with this career path.
I feel like the service learning assignment has helped me come to the decision to be a teacher. While it did show me a lot of the downsides like long hours, stressful situations, rowdy children, etc. it also showed me that those things are small in comparison to the large teaching picture. During my service learning, I was able to teach a short lesson to the kids and being up there felt so good. Multiple experiences like that led to me wanting to stay on this career path.
I only have a few prerequisites to complete before I enter the program, so I will be taking those classes this fall. This summer I will continue to study for and take the praxis. After these few simple steps, I will be ready to enter the program and continue on my path to becoming a teacher.
