I became a teacher so I could make a difference in children's lives like my teachers did for me.

 

Mr. Frees, my fourth grade teacher, because he instilled the love of reading in me.

 

A great teacher is someone who truly loves what they do and cares about their students even after they leave their class.

 

I most enjoy seeing a student overcome an obstacle and then celebrating those successes.
