When I'm a teacher, I want my students to see me as three things: a teacher, a role model, and a learner. I want them to see me as a teacher because obviously, I will be teaching them Spanish. I want them to see me as a role model for all that they can be in the future. While being their role model, I also want them to see me as someone they can turn to. I want them to see me as a learner so that they know that there is never a point in life where you stop learning. There is not a point in life where you know all that you can and it all just stops. Even though I'm their teacher, I want them to see that I learn new things from them and from my colleagues everyday.

A major part of being an educator is giving back to your students. At the end of the day, we are there for them. We are there to give them the best education that we can, and I also believe that we are there to help shape our students into being decent human beings in society. I think it is safe to say that most educators are called to the profession because we all think that we are capable to giving the students the tools that they need to succeed in life.

I have found that I'm a very personable individual. I think that I am approachable and able to relate to many people. I believe that this will make a good first impression  on my students because they will not see my as a scary or intimidating figure.

This can be a challenge for me because I tend to be a very big procrastinator. I usually find myself very close to a deadline when I begin on a project. Even when I take a planner and attempt to divide up my time, I have a hard time sticking with it. I am always good about getting things done, but I do think that the quality of my works could improve if I budget my time better.

I admired how open and close Angelica was with all of her students. The fact that she feels comfortable enough with her students to be honest about whatever they want to know is very cool. I think that her sharing these personal things with her students helps to make them feel comfortable as well. It makes for an open and pleasant environment within the classroom.

Jordan inspired me to use padlet for my presentation. She also made many good points of using technology in the classroom. Since technology is so prevalent in our society, it is important to have students  introduced to it early.  The earlier they become comfortable with the different forms of technology, the more prepared they will be when/if they plan to further their learning to a higher degree.

The work that Katie Moore has done with the UN is inspiring. Also her work with the Peace Core is something that I would like to do myself before becoming a full-time teacher. I strongly believe that gaining experience outside of the world that we live in is extremely impactful and is something to carry with you. It can be a meaningful experience to tell your students about, and another reason to show them why learning a foreign language is important.

I only aspire to be able to build half as good of relationships as Meredith does with her students. The ability to form this bond with your students is a valuable skill that I think more educators today need to have. When your students feel a connection with you is when you are able to positively influence them in the greatest way.

Choosing to be an educator was an easy decision for me. In 10th grade, my Spanish teacher inspired me to become a high school Spanish teacher. The way she carried herself in the classroom and how she influenced many of the students showed me that this is what I want to do. I gained the passion of learning world languages and think that it is an important subject for all students to learn. The reason I chose secondary education is because I think that middle and high school is a place where students can become inspired and driven to becoming the best versions of themselves.
