I want to be a teacher because when I was younger I was
considered a trouble-maker and many teacher didn't give me a chance or treat
me like they should have. But When I got to 9th grade a teacher put aside
my past and took me under his wings, to see that I was given a fair chance
while in school. During this period My grades showed a great improvment and
my love for school grew. When I graduated, I told myself that I wanted to
be like my 9th grade teacher and help those kids who were mis-understood
and not given a fair chance, so every since that day my goal is to one day
make an impact on a child life, like the one that was made on mine.
