Why I want to become a Teacher.

I have always had a heart for children; as a child I would care for my baby dolls and then it turned into my cousins. Once I turned 12, I started babysitting for money and I loved it.  In high school I decided to take some child care class, which taught me a lot about the teaching.  After high school I did not know what I wanted to do, so I started to take a few general courses at the community college.  After a few years of still being undecided, I finally choose to get my Associates in Child Care.  Since the program changed as I was about to graduate, I ended up receiving my Associates in Science. Before I even received my diploma, I was hired to be a preschool teacher for a center in New Lenox.

I have been at this child care center for the last four years and about a year ago my co-workers told me about this Adult Studies Program here at Trinity.  Once I investigated it and seen that they had a Physical Education Program I was all in and applied that day.  Sine I was a P.E. leader my senior year of high school I always had this career as a gym teacher in my head, but I never found a good program that I could afford or motivation to complete something like that.  With my help of my co-workers in finding Trinity and the motivation from my boyfriend, I was able to find the life that God had envisioned for me and I was to take the first steps in living up to my purpose .
