I am a teacher

●John Wayne Schlatter (translated by Zhang Ling)

I am Teacher, I was born at the moment when a question popped out of a child's mouth.

I have been many, many people in many, many places.

I am Socrates, inspiring young people in Athens to ask questions to discover the truth.

I am Anne Sullivan, drawing and writing the mysteries of the universe in the hands of Helen Keller.

I am Aesop, and I am Hans Christian Andersen. I use vivid stories to reveal the truth and enlighten the soul.

There are also many people who have been engaged in the profession of teachers, and their names are famous all over the world.

They show the heart of fraternity-----Buddha, Confucius, Moses, And Jesus...

I am still a group of people whose names and faces may have long been forgotten,

but their sincere teachings and charisma will forever be remembered among the achievements of their students.

I have cried with joy at the weddings of former students, laughed heartily when their children were born, and I have stood in silence at the graves of some students who died young. , Liver and intestines are severed.

Throughout the day, students need me to be an actor, a friend, a nurse-doctor, a coach, a finder of lost things...

A borrower, a taxi driver, a psychiatrist, Temporary parent, salesperson, politician, and man of his word...

Although I taught my students maps, charts, formulas, verbs, stories, and texts, in reality I had nothing to truly Teach them,

Because all they really want to learn and understand is themselves!

I also know that only by devoting yourself to society can you clearly understand yourself.

I am a contradiction.

I am the best at listening and the best at talking.

I willingly and gratefully accept what my students give me in return, which is the greatest gift I can receive.

Material wealth is not my goal at all, but I can be called a full-time wealth explorer,

Because I have to constantly explore new opportunities for students and let them enjoy themselves. Use your talents,

and keep looking for those talents that may be buried in self-defeat.

I am the luckiest among all workers! !

A doctor's job is to bring new life into the world at a magical moment.

My job is to witness the rapid changes in this life, and watch them ask new questions, generate new ideas, and make new friends every day.

The architect knows that if he uses skill and ingenuity in his work, his buildings can stand firm for centuries.

The teacher knows that if he integrates love and truth into education, his achievements can last for generations.

I am still a warrior who battles stress, negative attitudes, fear, legalism, prejudice, ignorance, and apathy every day.

Fortunately, I have many allies: wisdom, intellectual curiosity, parental support, personality, creativity, trust, love,

and laughter, they are all my strong backing.

Who should I thank for the privilege of experiencing such a wonderful life?

It is society and parents. It is you who have given me such an honor, trusted me and entrusted me with your children!!!

Only because of this, my past is filled with rich and beautiful memories.

My present is both challenging and risky, but also full of joy, because I can be with our future students every day.

I am a teacher, and I am grateful to God every day for allowing me to be a teacher
