Going back to college

I've enrolled to go back to college starting this fall to get my degree so I can be a teacher. I've given up on this dream for a long time and just recently had the support of a couple of women I work with to go back. I'm so very excited about it! I'm a substitute teacher right now, but really want to be a teacher! I've wanted this as long as I can remember. And now it's actually happening!

That's awesome, one that you have realized your dream and two that you are going to pursue it. Most of us don't even get to the point where we find our true passion, so you are truly a step ahead of us lol. So, good luck in your endeavors and I hope you do well in college.

i am a new english teacher in China.on sep,3,i will have my first class in my lifetime.i have been waiting for this day to come for a long time, since being a teacher is my dream.i love children, i enjoy the feeling when i work with them. however, recently , after having listening to some speeches made by the autoritities of my school, i began to ask myself such a quesion"why i want to be a teacher".you know,the salary is low, the work is hard.what is most important, a teacher has to shoulder great pressure that one can imagine, esp. for a green hand, like me. i hesitate, even regret for choosing this job. the quesion has no answer right now, only when i begin my teaching life that i can answer you whether i hv made a right choice.

You'll know you made the right choice the first time you make a difference in a child's life. Being a teacher isn't easy. No one knows that better than the teachers and substitutes. But when you can see the good you can do in a child's life it makes it all worth it.
