Why I Chose Education
I chose teaching because of my passion for children and a belief in hands-on learning experiences that truly engage young minds. I am an early education major so I can teach children from ages 3 through 3rd grade. My middle school teacher was incredibly inspiring. She showed me the impact educators can have on shaping futures through education. I feel teaching allows me to combine my love for children with the joy of fostering interactive learning environments.
