Teacher

As a Teacher, your role is to be active, diverse and influential. You develop your own curriculum and schedule. In the classroom, you answer questions and demonstrate a new project, such as making a collage which uses the children's creativity. You take the children on fieldtrips and provide new opportunities for children to learn about themselves, others and the world. Play is part of the classroom agenda, but on the playground, you organize a game or allow for open playtime. At this point of your career, it is important to attend professional meetings, educational conferences and participate in teacher training workshops to learn efficiency and improve your skills.
