When I ask teachers why they teach, they almost always say that it is because they want to make a difference in the lives of children.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Teaching is a truly noble profession. It's sad the amount of responsibility that teachers have today. They're not only teaching kids: they're raising kids, policing kids - and they don't make a lot of money.
Teachers are always trying to inspire people to do better, to learn, to grow. That's what we do, and we're proud of the success we've had here doing that, and it's something we'll certainly continue to do.
I think people are attracted to teaching because they want to make a real impact.
I can tell you I'm not exactly sure why I teach. I think a lot of it is just it's the sense of community. A real desire to be involved both with people older than myself and people younger.
I think that the only way to teach is by example, as children will more easily follow what they see you do than what you tell them to do.
I am a teacher born and bred, and I believe in the advocacy of teachers. It's a calling. We want our students to feel impassioned and empowered.
Education is a way of empowering people; it opens up so many doors and is fundamental to everybody. And teachers are not often appreciated in the way that they should be.
Teachers are by nature idealists, and they believe anything can be learned.
Education is the key to success in life, and teachers make a lasting impact in the lives of their students.
Teachers shape so much of what a kid's upbringing can be.
