About my journey in pursuit of my dream
Today I am going to talk about ” I chose the theme of “children” because it is, in fact, what I do on a daily basis, what I love to do, and what I want to do until I retire. This is because while it is a joy, it is also a daily pleasure, but also a nerve-wracking one, as I worry about finances and taking care of my health. Ever since I was a little girl, I loved inventing different activities and tasks for the children. I loved taking care of children and enjoyed it very much. But I never thought I would be able to go to teacher training school.
I didn\’t learn very well, I got a C in elementary school and my parents wanted me to go to conservatory. But in the end, my big dream came true and instead of conservatory, I entered the Faculty of Education. How I studied there is a bit of a tangent, so I won\’t go into it. Eventually I graduated and was able to become a kindergarten teacher, something I had always wanted to do. It was quite difficult at first because the class was full of naughty children. The children were noisy, coming and going, and I suddenly began to doubt my decisions. Because what they teach you in school and the reality is completely different.
To be honest, I wasn\’t very good at first. The children were mischievous and didn\’t listen to me at all until the second job. I had to learn and understand that children need consistency, rules, and order. Teachers need to be liked by the children and respected as an authority figure, not a friend. They may agree with you, but they must also respect you. Even after all I have been through, I love my job and would never trade it for anything else. Children heal our lives more than anything else and bring us great joy and fulfillment.
