Teacher For A Day by Jordan

Teacher For A Day by Jordan - October 2016 Scholarship Essay

If the roles were reversed and I was a teacher, I wouldn’t necessarily teach a certain subject but I would teach a certain grade. If I were a teacher I would want to teach Kindergarten. I feel that it would be a fun job. Also I would be able to interact with kids.

One reason I would want to teach Kindergarten is because I love kids. I think it would be a fun experience to teach younger kids. Some of the kids have never been to school before when they go to Kindergarten, so I would be the first teacher they will meet.

I think in my opinion Kindergarten is a very important year. Kindergarten is a very scary thing for some kids, so the teacher needs to be kind and understanding. I still remember my first day of Kindergarten. I was scared and I didn’t know any of the kids. I just wanted to stay with my mom, but then I remember the teacher. She was so kind to me and understanding. So many kids need this when they start Kindergarten. They need a teacher who will help them come out of their shell. By having this kind of teacher I was able to get more comfortable with coming to school and it wasn’t so bad after that. I started making new friends and it was very fun.

Kindergarten is tough for some kids, but if they have an amazing teacher like I did it helps. I think I could be that kind of teacher. I think it would be amazing to help kids who are shy and scared just like I was on the first day. I would love to interact with the kids and be able to watch them make friends and grow as a person. That is why I would want to teach Kindergarten.
