Why Teach?

Why do I want to teach? Good question... There are a couple different reasons actually.


I really like working with kids. They are some of the most incredible people ever! They say the funniest things, are smarter than most people realize and they are just fun to spend with time with. Kids see the world differently than adults and it is refreshing to see things through their eyes once in awhile.


I am tutoring students right now. I have for about 4 years - all different ages. I have tutored kindergarten kids, all the way to university students. My favorite thing in the world is seeing them understand something that they have been struggling with. It is such an amazing feeling to help someone understand a topic/concept and see the light bulb come on over their head! I know that I probably won't be able to help all my students that way, but the possibly of helping them and touching their lives really entices me.


And of course, the holidays. They are not the main reason I chose teaching, but they are a nice benefit!
