Why We Teach? An In-Depth Understanding of Why People Teach
Abstract
The author surveyed 200 teachers across the country and interviewed local teachers during a student teaching experience to answer the question “Why We Teach?” The author concludes “I will teach because it is a noble profession. It offers me a rare opportunity to impact the lives and futures of kids and adults. I will join an elite group of individuals that are not only recognized by their fame and fortune, but simply by the number of students who go on to teach or be great people of this world.”
