Teaching comes naturally to me. However, my reasons for becoming a teacher are quite straightforward. As a teacher, I have the privilege to change lives—not one, but a significant number. As a teacher, my role is not just limited to being a mentor. I get to be a mediator, learner, collaborator, psychologist, writer, interpreter, translator, speaker, researcher, actor and animator, all within the same profession. It is an extraordinary role. I have no doubt that I am making a positive impact on the world while experiencing personal and professional growth. I find it truly gratifying to guide young souls and witness their transformation into amazing individuals. Yes, teaching can be difficult, sometimes underappreciated, and often exhausting, but the rewards make it all worthwhile!
