Quote

I want to teach. I want to speak. I want to travel.

I would love to study cultures and people.

I would love to be able to see as much of the world as possible, and volunteering, doing things in another community, living with a host family, are really effective ways to learn about cultures different from your own. And also to not feel lazy.

I want to fix education in the world. As soon as I work on that, I am going to work on world hunger and then world peace.

I've always wanted to make teaching a part of my life.

I want simply to learn about the world and live freely.

At the end of the day, I want to be a teacher at a university, teaching film or acting.

I hope to become a better teacher. I love teaching.

I want to have a cultural impact. I want to be an inspiration, to show people what can be done.

When I started Teach For America, I wasn't trying to come up with an idea that would change the world. I was trying to solve a problem much closer to home: I was a senior in college, and I had no idea what I was going to do with my life!
