1st Reflection....

I think there was a lot of things that reflects my decision of becoming an educator. Growing up Ive always struggled with a learning disability, and I never found out till later in life. I' ve always wondered why I had such a hard time in school and why I never understood what was going on in class. Another reason that I wanted to become an educator was the ability to build bonds with the kids and coach them in various sports. My true goal be the end of my career is working in finding better ways to detect learning disability with students. So many kids get passed through the cracks and never really get the same opportunity that other kids get.
When I came to college I had every intention on being in the sports med. field, but I later found out the my true love and passion was in the education field. I have been taken back by the amount I love this field, and I truly feel that this is my calling. I have experienced a lot of bumps along the way and struggled with grade and other family issues. Since then I've been able to get back on track and stay focused and work on achieving my true goal.
