Teacher

Teacher's day is fast approaching in Sg. It is the 31st of August! I really wanna write an in depth reflection about my path as one so far.... though to be honest, I still don't really consider myself as "teacher". It's a word that carries so much more weight and responsibility than we can see. This year though has been the most explorative year for me. I grew a lot more and gained a lot more skills from the different experiences that I went through. I was truly grateful for the opportunities given. Next  year during A level break, I do intend on teaching both in school as well as a tutor. The path to me is now more diverse. Having taught in a diverse age group setting, I am now open to more options. This is also the year where I, thankfully, was able to see a lot more tangible and intangible consequences of my actions as a "teacher". I have been "teaching" for 9 years now and yet it seemed like I knew what I was doing already. Except this year I stretched myself a lot more than the 9 years combined. It made me uncomfortable at first to step out of the comfort zone but it was exhilarating to say the least! 

If I do find the time, perhaps I will jot down more thoughts and personal reflections...
