What got you interested in becoming a teacher?

Mr. John Adair, my 9th grade English teacher sparked my interest in education. He has such an infectious passion for language and literature that encouraged me to follow the same path. |

How do you keep your students motivated?
|
To my students motivated i try to incorporate class discussion as much as possible. Even though I love to talk, students learn more from their peers than they do their teachers. I also try to relate the literature we read to everyday life and show its relevance in today's society. |
