Teaching is a profession that can yield something amazing when the right
ideas and beliefs are implemented in the classroom. I believe that the
purpose of teaching is not to teach students how to
memorize facts, or how to know all the correct answers. The purpose of
teaching lies in getting students to truly understand the concepts being
examined. The best teachers are patient, understanding, and kind. They can put
themselves in their students' shoes and imagine what the students are
thinking and feeling, thus anticipating what they need in order to learn
and thrive. When a student is struggling, good teachers hide their
frustration and refrain from making disdainful comments that only make
the situation worse. Instead, compassionate teachers will try anything
and everything in order to reach each and every student. It can be
challenging at times, but great teachers know that what separates them
from the rest of the pack is the heart and soul they bring into the
classroom.
