The adults around me were extremely patient, caring, very knowledgeable about everything they are teaching, and very open to new ideas. I hope that in the future I grow to be as patient and well informed about the subjects I teach the way these teachers are. They are so amazing and have really opened my eyes to the life of a teacher. I am extremely hopeful that after high school I am still able to have the same amazing learning options that I have now and that even when I am no longer a student I still continue to learn and grow. My internship has definitely pushed me towards a teaching career path. After today’s field trip I really got a taste of how stressful it can be to be solely responsible for students. It’s scary and stressful but at the same time I really liked helping them learn why things in the science center worked the way they did.
