Personal Statement

Can someone help me with my personal statement for teaching?

Or, ideally, let be borrow and adjust one they already have.

Thanks,

Leg

I will be writing one in couple weeks. What area of teaching are you interested in? I am interested in Elementary and Special Education.

by when do you need it? by the way the above link is a good one.

Re: Personal Statement

say why u want to do teaching- is it kids, working with young people, passion for the job. talk about experience u have had in this field - tutoring pupils, observing lessons, voluntary teaching, having the benefit of great teachers and the differenct it made.
then talk about ur qualifications - how they would help u make a great teacher
talk about how u can be a role model - talk about the fact that you have views from different cultures and how that would help pupils understand different cultures
talk about y teaching is such a good job ( do not mention money!)
Ur statement will depend on what level u r going into teaching - ru doing a pgce?or a BEd
if u want to pm me a brief resume and your personal statement - i will make suggestions
