I was placed in Mrs. Salinas 8th grade classroom, with about 15 students. Mrs. Salinas has been a teacher for 26yrs; for the first twenty years she was a math teacher and then decided to change to a Spanish teacher. For this summer though she was asked to help students in math. Her reason for being a teacher was because it was already in the family. Yet the person that pushed her even more so to pursuit her desire was her 4th grade teacher. Her reward as a teacher have been the moments when she sees her students being successful. Her most challenging aspect as a teacher is trying to make students that are unwilling to learn, be successful. Her advice to coming new teachers is DISCIPLINE; discipline is the key to being successful as a teacher and not lose control. Being consistent with it would support it, and it will pay off.
