Why Do I Still Want to be a Special Education Teacher?

Why is it that I still want to be a special education teacher? I never really liked school all that much, because of how I did in my classes, I was and still am shy, and I really DO NOT LIKE standing up and talking in front of a group of people. I also have a learning disability, so that made school harder for me.

Plus, colleges with education/special education degrees ask a lot from people, and I don't think I am able to meet their requirements. Especially with my learning disability

I am thinking about getting a Teacher's Aide degree, though, so I will still be in the classroom that way.

But, for some reason, I still really want to get my Special Education Teaching degree. I don't know why.

I guess maybe because I love children, and this is one of the best ways for me to interact with them, and help them.

I'll figure something out soon, in regards to special education teaching. I'm leaning more towards being a teacher's aide, but I'm not giving up on being a teacher. I don't want to give up on that just yet. We'll see what happens.

Well, that's all for now. More to come later.

I'm Getting Ahead of Myself

The last couple of days, I have been getting ahead of myself.

 

I haven't even finished my baking/pastry degree, and I'm already planning on double majoring in Teacher's Aide and Digital Photography degrees after I finish this degree.

 

I really need to focus on the now, and not worry about the distant future. I am doing well in my current degree, and I want it to stay that way.

 

I don't want to get distracted by other things, even if it's something I really want to do. Especially if I can't do it now. Like these degrees I want to go for.

I have three more weeks left in the fall semester (one class per week), and then I am done for a month. I recently signed up for the spring semester, in which I will be taking (hopefully) Introduction to Baking/Pastry.

 

I am really looking forward to the spring semester, and I seriously hope the class doesn't get cancelled, like the fall class did, and having to sign up for another time frame. That was the first time that ever happened to me, and I hope it never happens again.

 

I am seriously surprised that I am so into school now, as I never really liked it until I got to college. But, I guess that's a good thing. School should be enjoyable. Learning should be enjoyable.

 

Well, that's all for now. More to come later.
