2. Are you prepared to take the role of a professional teacher? Why?
3. What visions do you have to achieve this goal?
When I hear the word Professional Teacher, I immediately think back to all my teachers that
helped me succeed and graduate high school. To me a professional teacher is to be able to
teach the children how to be respectful to others, teach them how important it is for them to
always be honest, and most importantly to keep in mind that I am their role model. A person
whom they will look up to for the entire year. For this specially reason I will strive my hardest to
be a very professional teacher.
I as a teacher I will gain the trust of my students and parents since the very first day of school. I
will demonstrate a great impression of myself on the very first day that the students and
parents come into my classroom.
I will never single out a student front of his/her friends by asking him something that he doesn’t
know how to do. If they need help on something specific I will sit with them and help them
succeed. I had something like this happen to me when I was little. I was a bilingual student and
didn’t know how to read very well in English. One time when the teacher called out my name to
read out loud I started to read and would say words incorrectly. All of my class mates started
laughing at me and started saying that I didn’t know how to read. After that I shut down and
never wanted to read out lout to anyone anymore. It was until I was in middle school that my
reading teacher helped me out a lot and helped me overcome my fear of reading in front of
everyone. A professional teacher will use student’s personal information to help the student
out. I will not relies any confidential information that is shared with me to anyone at any given
time. A sting thing that I believe is to keep the parents involved in their child’s school work.
How to Become a Professional Teacher?
The teaching profession is one of the noblest professions known to man. Teachers have taught
and molded presidents, heads of states, prime ministers, kings, queens, and a plethora of
industry leaders and captains of industries. Teachers are the necessary drivers of civilization, as
there are responsible for shaping future leaders, ensuring we have the best brains to
continually shape our world and make it a better place. Little wonder the teaching profession
deserves the very best brains and individuals with the requisite qualification and character to
teach. In this article, we are going to outline and discuss how to become a professional teacher.
We will outline the necessary certifications you need to acquire before you can be certified as a
professional teacher. We will also enumerate some of the qualities necessary for you to have in
order to better function as a great teacher that inspires and motivates.

Are you prepared to take the role of a professional teacher? Why?


Teaching can be a challenging but rewarding profession that allows you to guide students as
they learn about important topics and materials. If you want to make the most of your teaching
career and help students develop skills and competencies for success, preparation can be an
important part of your teaching journey. Learning about the teaching preparation process and
why it's so crucial can help you develop the skills and strategies to improve as a teacher. In this
article, we describe preparation in teaching, list pillars of preparation and list benefits and
strategies to help you sharpen your preparation methods.
It's important to prepare for teaching classes so that you can lead productive, engaging lessons
for your students and maximize the effectiveness of your time and resources. While
preparation for teaching can include aspects like lesson planning and creating daily activities, it
can also involve the initial or ongoing training you receive to gain skills and competency as a
teacher. Together, these types of preparation can help you sharpen your teaching skills and
philosophies and perform effectively in your role.
Improved teaching skills. As you prepare to teach, you can develop skills to successfully guide
students' learning. You can prepare for teaching by researching best practices or educational
philosophies. You can also learn about issues that face education systems and develop
strategies to face them in your career. One way to prepare for your teaching role is to discuss
your career development with other educational professionals or mentors. They can help you
develop teaching skills like patience, empathy, organization and attention to detail. You can also
use this time to develop a unique teaching philosophy to inform your teaching performance.
Enhanced student learning and performance. When you prepare to teach, you can be ready to
help students with any potential problems that arise. This can help increase their opportunity
to learn, potentially improving performance. For example, preparing for a particular lesson can
help you predict any problems that your students may experience with the new material. You
can then plan for any potential issues by developing problem-solving strategies. This can lead to
simpler, quicker solutions that eliminate distractions or confusion.
What visions do you have to achieve this goal?
My vision is simple. I want what’s best for my students. I want to provide an environment in
which they can feel comfortable while they learn. They need to understand that it is through
mistakes and gentle correction that they learn. I want the students to genuinely enjoy classes
so that they come to class with a smile on their faces. To achieve this, I employ a number of fun
and innovative activities to make sure that the students remain curious as to what is coming
next.
Finally, I want to break down students’ image of what a teacher is. For most of them, when they
think teacher, they think of a square and serious person. However, by sharing a little of myself, I
can break down this barrier and therefore they can see me as a human just like them. This
means that they feel that they can be themselves and come out of their shells. As a teacher, I
always wanted more for my students. What and who they were today; I wanted them to grow.
My vision was that they would be willing to learn what was presented and seek more.
Learning changes us on the inside and outside. As our brain absorbs more we think more and
have more to think with; those little pathways running from thought to thought. I wanted to
learn from my students as well. If I could grow, add to my skills and be better, I wanted that
too. This is call growing by experience. My vision was to see students identify their strengths
and weaknesses. build their character, and become a better person. I have been privileged to
see a little of that growth. It was years after I had them in class. A good student told be that she
now understood. I was not being mean to them with difficult lessons. I was offering the class
the opportunity to succeed. Teaching them what they needed to go farther; preparing them for
the future. Overall, my vision is one in which students leave my classes not only feeling that
they have improved their English but also that they have grown as people as well.
