As for me, it’s the student potential and student successes that make me want to become a teacher. Being a teacher has been my dream career since I was only seven years old. Actually, my thought was very pure and simple at that time: to help those who are in need. At that time, I used to take out my pocket money to buy the stamps from Red Cross in order to help those in need. Thus, I started to think about what I could do for those in need. Finally, I came out with the idea: becoming a teacher. During my school life, teachers have always been a lot of help for me. Thus, I think teacher is truly a career that can help people a lot. Even though the society is unfair, at least education can make everyone equal. Also, I do gain a lot of the sense of achievement from teaching my classmates. Though the career is not high-paid, I think the value of teacher doesn’t lie in merely material aspect but spiritual one. Thus, I would like to become a teacher in the future.
