MY FUTURE PROFESSION IS A PRIMARY SCHOOL TEACHER

Since childhood, I have dreamed of becoming a primary school teacher. Initially, it was an unconscious desire, because my grandmother was a primary school teacher, and I always envied her. I saw that she was working hard, always busy with notebooks, plans and tables. She knew how to do many things with her own hands and always taught me.

I understand that the noble and time-consuming work of a primary school teacher is requires constant dedication. However, I believe that doing things you love, and not just making a career, can bring excellent results. I think that the life of a society and a country as a whole, depend on the teachers, the quality of their work, their skills and commitment.

Primary school teacher is a person who understands the basics of every school subject. He knows how to attract the attention of children, how to present the topic in an interesting way, how to captivate them with learning. The elementary school teacher combines the functions of a teacher, educator and psychologist. Primary school teacher is a very time consuming profession. Those who get along well with children and are ready to devote their lives to their upbringing choose her. It is not for nothing that they say that a primary school teacher is not a profession, but a way of life, therefore, an obligatory quality for this work is love for children. The primary school teacher must be tactful, kind, patient, fair. A child can forgive even an overly emotional response if it is justified and fairly said. The teacher should give each student a chance to reveal their capabilities, to be an assistant, mentor, psychologist, role model, to some extent even a mother. Often women choose this profession because they naturally understand children well.
