I do not tell a lie, I do not want to always receive education. Only when I was a sophomore in high school, I realized that education attracted my interest. It was a camp where I worked with people with disabilities, when it really caught up with volunteer activities, it all began. Based on experience at the training camp, I wanted to major in special education, and I am passionate about Boston University.
I started education at high school, but my first formal educational experience did not begin until this summer. I was a kindergarten teacher at a church summer school, which is one of my best experiences in my life. I liked kids, especially kindergarten to junior high school second grade children, so I am very excited about my position.
Of course, the first day was very nervous. Secondly, the idea of seeing and teaching a group of noisy 5 year old children is overwhelming. Still, my first day of class exceeds my expectation. My job as a teacher is to teach alphabets, words spelling, and simple mathematics like counting. Learning is not difficult, but the 6 week course plan is something that I have not done before. It was difficult at first to think about what to do everyday, but as time went through, the process became easier and I became more creative.
My first educational experience has taught me a lot about the meaning of being a teacher and the self-significance as a future educator. For example, I always knew that it was not easy to propose a course plan, so I'm very happy to have this experience to prepare for the future. I also learned that the sense of time is bad when teaching, so now I know to check what to do and when.
As a freshman of the Faculty of Education, I will soon be entering the real classroom, getting more training and insight, and becoming a teacher I am very happy. Basic education is not my major course, but from this experience of education I gained a view on what I can do in a few years.

Janine Bempechat, a human development professor at the Department of Education and Human Development at the University of Boston, said that anxiety of overly arranged students who are doing homework for over three to four hours overnight obscures other problems writing. With sufficient homework, they may suffer at school. In an interview with Education Weekly, Bempechat says: "Because high-income children are exposed to things parents may not have after school, eliminating their homework will not be a big problem." It is considered that homework should be completely eliminated When, this is the lowest income student who was the most seriously injured. "
