MY AIM IN LIFE
I aspire to create a positive impact on every student I have the opportunity to teach. I believe that if we manage to ingrain the seed of love and goodness in the heart of every child, we will be able to achieve a better tomorrow. Therefore, as I teach, not only do I transfer knowledge to students so they can become tomorrow's greatest thinkers, but I also transfer love and goodness so they can spread that in the world around them.
MY PURPOSE OF STUDYING THIS COURSE
Studying this course is going to help me acquire the skillset required to be an effective teaching assistant and will therefore help me achieve my aim in life as stated above.
