03+Expectations+of+Myself

When it comes to following our dreams we always have an idea of the way we want it to come about, but it never comes out the way we expected. Even though this statement may seem like it was in a disappointed tone, it is not so. When everything falls into place with no effort ever made we never learn. So when we plan certain events and activities and an obstacle places itself in our path we must be able to think outside the box and find a solution. So, as a teacher problem solving would be an asset to have when dealing with a student population, and further more in the community. As a teacher I will have students who range from the highest achievers to the students who struggle to better themselves in there classwork. So though my first few years as a teacher will be full of trial and errors, I will take those experiences and attempt to make future decisions that will better my students. I would hope by the end of my ten year planned goals; I would be an accomplished teacher in whichever grade levels need me, and have the opportunity to make a difference in the lives of the students who walk through the doors of my classroom. But though these are the goals I want to attempt to have within the next ten years I am prepared to come to terms that it may not happen. Even though it is contained in my mind set I will not loose faith in my capabilities and will challenge myself and push myself so I can grow. Teachers are very powerful individuals in the lives of students, and so that means I cannot expect any less than being at one hundred percent. These students will be looking at me to set an example and show them how they are expected to act.
