TEACHING IS MY INNER DESIRE Everyone has progressed to where they are in life because of their lecturers.

A lecturer is defined as someone who gives instruction and communicates skills. Our children are our future, and they need to be prepared for the future or they will not be successful in the working world.

Since my little age, I learnt very hard to succeed in my ambition. Teaching is a noble profession and it is a very respectful job. Furthermore, we are unable to gain knowledge without the help of teachers. A lecturer's responsibilities are many and variable. I am a determined, intelligent and confident future English teacher with strong aptitude for learning and passion for teaching young minds. I love teaching and I am capable to teach primary, secondary school students and tertiary students.

I have chosen to become a lecturer because I myself am a product of someone whom I consider to be the best teacher in the world. As a child in Malaysia, I was inspired by a couple of wonderful teachers named Ms.Yap and Mr. Isai Amuthan. Both of them taught me that any dream was possible. If I put my mind to accomplish any goal I could make it happen. Mr. Isai Amuthan inspired me to be the best I could be at anything I wanted to be. These wonderful inspiring people in my life have helped me in my decision to become a teacher. The job of a lecturer means different things to different people. For some, a lecturer is simply a person who delivers "necessary information" on maths formulas, historical facts, or literary work .Yet for others and for me, lecturers are much more than that. Not only do they give their knowledge to the students, but they also give the passion of doing something. They get involved in the lives of their students, make them to feel good about them and help the youth realize and fulfil their dreams. Being a special education lecturer will bring so many joy and challenges. One of the challenges of becoming a special education lecturer is helping students to overcome everyday challenges. I am passionate of becoming a lecturer is by the fact that each of my students may be of a great value for this world, since they are the basic ingredient of a thriving community. As far as I am concerned, I think this is a profession which is full of challenges, but a profession that also brings satisfaction. It is about changing students' attitudes. Nothing calms me more than spending my time with children, being part of their lives, watching them creating an endless quest for knowledge. Nothing pleases me more than knowing that I get the opportunity to develop the minds and attitudes of those who are the world's future. A positive or negative influence from a lecturer early on life can have a great effect on the life of a child. The plasticity of young minds is such an advantageous factor which makes a teacher mould and create them. Workstations are a good way to encourage different types of learning. By allowing children a chance to choose which

activities they want to participate in, children will be able to take control of their own education. As a lecturer, I must learn to incorporate everyone's belief into the daily curriculum in which it is most difficult to handle the difference in culture. I hope to pay it forward and carry the torch to a new generation of young people. A lecturer has a direct opportunity to make a difference, to change the future. I have been told that I am an idealist. I wanted the best for everyone. As a lecturer, I will set high goals and do my best to show each and every student that these goals are within their reach. As an excellent teacher I am not someone who explains and demonstrates but someone who inspires. For me, it is a chance to inspire another human being. It is not an opportunity but a challenge. There are too many educators that have not accepted this challenge yet, and I hope that they can make a difference with themselves so that they can lend their help to the students. There are times when we encounter students that require a little more effort than others. When we are facing this kind of a situation, lecturers must reflect the true meaning of teaching which will enable them to teach. We have to embrace the difference in the learning style of students and develop innovative strategies for reaching such a diverse popular. Teaching is not the field of making money, but it is about the feeling I get when I see my students doing things that I taught which makes me to feel great. In addition, a lecturer must be able to keep a class under control and to explain different subjects. Teaching would be a good choice for me because I love to be with students. As a teacher, we must create a warm and protective environment but at the same time being a professional. It is my goal to combine my range of learning with my ability to be a compassionate, enthusiastic, innovative educator who will make a positive contribution in establishing an energizing and creative learning environment that may help to enhance my professional and personal achievement. In conclusion, I strongly believe that lecturers need to show respect, care, become a role model, make pleasant environment, guide students on the right and wrong, instruct them politely, and guide them through the road for success.
