ANY QUESTIONS??

My Journey to become a TeacherBy: Ms. Farish

As a kid:I have always wanted to be a teacher.

-I like to be organized

-I like to see others succeed.

-I like to talk

It is what I have always know I would do!!!

In High School

I had a teacher tell me “Teachers don’t make enough money” so I started to rethink what I have always wanted to do…..

Then I did some research…. And found out they make a salary that is livable, so I decided to continue my pursuit in becoming a teacher.

In College

When I graduated High School my dad was in Iraq so I had to get into a college on my own…..

Once there the work was hard and I wanted to stop many times BUT I kept thinking of my goal and pushed though.

But College was fun too….

• I won awards

• We drew pictures

• & Eventually I Graduated!!
