Thought you guys might like to look at this video. My aunt had sent this to me and told me to "grab a tissue". It will touch your heart, no matter what grade you plan on teaching.

I was thinking about how cool it would be to meet this wonderful guy.

If a teaher is able to reach a child even once in their career the way that this teacher reached this child, they have accomplished more than most. I think it is sad how much teachers underestimate childrens' capability or potential and give up on them.

That was an amazing video. It reminded me a lot of my second grade teacher. She was the first teacher that really reached out and helped me get through school and problems I had outside of school. To this day I still write to her and owe my career choice mainly to her. My goal is to become a teacher that is just half as good as she is. Without her I would still be quiet and reserved and I would have never passed math at any point in school. I really loved this video and I think that everyone should realize the kind of effect that a teacher can have on one student.

Yeah, so that made me cry. That is why I want to be a teacher. I really want to make that kind of impact on a child's life.
