This is why I am becoming a teacher.

When I was in high school. I was a below average student. I was depressed and was caring my parents burden on my shoulder. I had friend and relationship problems. I hadn't gotten into any of the college I applied to. I felt like everyone gave up on me and I HAD GIVEN UP ON MYSELF.
I didn't feel like I was worth having around and the world would be better off with out me.
Yet there was one teacher who helped me apply to a local college and I would sit in his class and do homework. He would help me pass my classes and would give me advice on how with dealing with my problems. The teacher told me I have to believe in myself and life is worth living. He saved my life. By being there and never giving up on me when I thought everyone else did. Now I'm a very successful college student working for my teaching degree.

This is why I want to be a teacher. I have heard every negative reason on why being a teacher is the worse job ever. But I want to teach so I can help a kid who might need just one person to believe in them.
