Chapter 1: Becoming a Teacher

Joyful
·         Remembering my favorite teacher made so happy inside. She was always there for me, and she always knew when I was having a bad day.  I remember going into her room every study and we would just talk about stuff. It was amazing.
·         I was joyful to hear that my concentration was one that was needed.  I have always loved math so for me to learn it in college, and be successful when I get out is really cool.
·         I am so excited to become a teacher. Making my portfolio, to student teaching, and mentoring. I am so determined to be a teacher that kids want to be with.
Not Joyful
·         Remember my worst teacher did not make me joyful at all. She was so mean. I could not do anything right, I could not wear the right things. Then she had me go with the “dumber” kids that made me really sad because I had always gotten good grades. She was just very cruel.
·         When I was reading the professional section that made me upset.  It was sad to think that people didn’t view teachers as professionals. Teachers have to take tests and more tests. Plus we have to go through student teaching, plus we have to go through accreditation periods.  So people, who said that teachers weren’t professionals, shame on you.
·         Salaries. This makes me sad in the way that I might have to struggle a little bit with money.  But when I think of the kids and teaching them, I would not want to be doing anything else. Hopefully my husband will make the dough. J
