Why did you decide to become a teacher?

I decided to become a teacher many years ago. It was the easiest decision of my life because, when I was young, I was always playing with my dolls and teddy bears as if they were my students.

I used to imagine that I was in my class with big windows and I decorated it with my children’s works. I used the door as if it was my blackboard. Also, I gave coloured pencils to my students so they could write and draw. I read them stories and sang songs and if someone behaved badly, I punished them.

I think that I decided to become a teacher to have direct contact with children, to teach them and also to learn from them.

Over these years I have been very interested in everything related to children. For this reason, I have done some shortcourses.

Today, I am a child educator and I want to be a teacher and be better every day in my future job.
