my dream job(first draft)

          
Everyone has a dream job. Some people know exactly what their dream job is, while others are still trying to figure out what they should do with their lives.  I'm  really convinced that to be a teacher is my dream job.
          Firstly, good teachers has many qualities. For example ,they are good at explaining things. Do you like to explain how something works, or how something happened? Being comfortable with explaining content to students is an essential skill for teachers, regardless of the subject or grade level .In addition, they can keep their cool. There will be times when you will be tempted to scream or yell at your students, other teachers, parents, administrators, and so on. Good teachers are able to successfully resist this urge. Moreover, they have a sense of humor. Research has consistently shown that good teachers have a sense of humor, and that they are able to use humor as part of their teaching methods. Humor, used properly, can be a powerful addition to any lesson. What's more, they are inherently fair-minded. They are able to assess students on the basis of performance, not on the students' personal qualities. In addition, they have "common sense." It may sound a bit corny, but good teachers are practical. They can size up a situation quickly and make an appropriate decision. Whether managing a classroom, leading students on a field trip, seamlessly shifting from one instructional procedure to another, assigning detentions, supervising an intern, or dealing with policy and curriculum issues in the school, there is no substitute for common sense. Moreover, they are detail oriented. If you are a disorganized person in your private life, you will find that teaching will probably be uncomfortable for you. At the very least, teachers must be organized in their professional and teaching duties. If you're not organized and are not detail oriented, teaching may not be the best choice of a profession for you.
         Secondly, to be a teacher ,actually, has a great benefits. For instance, Building Knowledge; someone has rightly said that teaching once is equal to learning for one more time. And that is what makes a good teacher. Teaching allows you to build and strengthen your knowledge. Kids ask so many questions and in order to find the answers, you will go so deep into the subject that you are sure to be a master of that subject. When you have to teach something, you obviously have to be completely knowledgeable about that subject. This is one of the biggest benefits of being a teacher that can help you sharpen your intelligence. Not to mention that  your Wish is their Command
This is one of the greatest benefits of being a kindergarten teacher. Imagine you are always surrounded with cute looking innocent people who are there to obey all your instructions. And for them you are no less than an idol. The young ones generally bug their parents talking about their teacher- "today miss said this", "miss taught me a poem", "sir did that", and so on. So virtually you are going to be their world. Isn't it great to be such an important part of many angels. In addition, Big Paychecks and Scholarships;
One of the most happening
benefits of becoming a teacher is getting a big fat school teacher salary and scholarship offers. In most of the schools, teachers are encouraged to study further or pursue some courses or doctorate, etc. They are many scholarships for teachers so that they can study further while on the job. This way, they get the salary and scholarship both. What an opportunity! With a higher qualification, salary also raises.
      
            Finally, to be a teacher, a doctor ,a pilot or whatever you want depends on your abilities to keep that job. Actually, there are steps to keep your dream job: The first step is to figure out the "what" of your dream job. Throw practicality out the window at this point; think about what you like to do, not what would be practical for you to do. For example, does the thought of bookkeeping bore or excite you? If earning money were no object, what type of work activity would you do for free just because you love the work so much? What do you daydream about doing or do as a hobby in your spare time? .The second step to your dream job is focusing on who you are and the working environment you prefer. Most people can be flexible and cope quite well in environments and situations that are not ideal to them, but your true dream job is one that fits with your personality. For example, if your passion from step one is writing, your dream job could be a reporter or a novelist depending on which environment and how much interaction with others you prefer.. The third step is to really narrow your options down by honestly considering your skills. Everyone has a genius for something whether it is science, selling products, building, designing, or teaching. Think back to what subjects you did well at in school and what awards or special recognition you have ever received for something you did. What do you do better than practically everyone you know? This is no time to be modest as everyone has special skills and talents.
             To conclude, as a teacher, your influence over your students, and ultimately the future, is infinite. As you share your knowledge and attention with your students, you will influence who and what they become – not only in the professional realm, but also personally.
