Upon graduation some of my frens decided to take up various course! Other than the usually Science and Arts in a college, certain pple choose to apply for interesting courses with the various Poly in Singapore :P
Nursing? Engineering? Teaching? How do we noe if we are choosing something correctly?
Just be having the Passion for that area of field, we commit ourselves to the course hoping to do well in it!?! Then the Qn is How do one define the Passion for something???
I may sae that i haf the Passion for teaching butone very experienced teacher reminded me that "Teaching is not just about having the Passion to do so!"
To be a good teacher that will touch the lives of your students and so-called "Make lessons come alive" is certainly not easy :X You need to have the talent for teaching and be a ble to convey the accurate info to the students effectively; if not, you will fail...
Given the chance to intereact with a couple of Upper Primary kids, i realise it's harder and harder to get their attention esp those very playful ones +) and not to forget the lesson plan that you haf to fulfil as well :)
When ppl ask me What's my ambition, i simply reply, " To be a teacher".
But the fact is What sort of teacher i wanna be? Can i reallie be a good teacher in future? How will i perform as a role of a Teacher who is to mould the young leaders of tomoro??? Till when will i be able to stand them and continue working with them?
PASSION should be something that stays on regardless of what (eg Time).
