 Who I am?Hello! My name is Ed. T. Demo, a generic representation of each and every great student at the University of Northern Iowa that heard the calling and is determined to become a teacher.Why I am going to be a teacher?Teaching is a difficult profession that requires life long learning. A teacher is often the one responsible for helping young people discover their strengths and passions, cultivate talents and open their eyes to new possibilities. What a challenge! A hundred children, a hundred individuals who are people--not
people-to-be, not people of tomorrow, but people now, right now--today.
~ Janusz Korczak What I hope to achieve through teaching?I hope to inspire students and help them grow to their fullest potential. I would also like to feel personal satisfaction in making the world a better place one person at a time. Finally, I would like to pay it forward for all the great memories and skills I was lucky to obtain from many of my own great teachers. |
