Tell me why did you decide to become a teacher?

Submitted by: Muhammad
I am passionate about science, I enjoy working with young people, and when it came time to consider re-entering the work force I thought back to the best job I have had and that was working as a chemist. At the same time, I was volunteering as a tutor and classroom aid for a chemistry teacher at my daughter's high school. I was good at it and I loved it. The teacher and the principal both encouraged me to put the two things together into a mid-life career change and then helped me during my application process to the MAT program at University of Portland. The past three years I have been a substitute teacher in chemistry, biology and freshman physics classrooms working daily and long term. LT subbing has made my desire to teach stronger than ever and I hope to find a teaching job for the coming school year.
