1st Teacher Mentor Meeting

I went to my meeting with my teacher mentor at the end of September and I learned a lot about why she likes to teach and how she got to that point. I was very excited to have our first meeting so that I could get to know her. I was also curious about what else she did outside of teaching in her classroom and I learned a lot. I learned that she has been teaching for 14 years and she decided to become a teacher to see kids be excited about learning. But she is always working because she also has a part-time job outside of school and she does after school tutoring on some days as well. So I learned even though she has been teaching for a long time she has to get another job to pay her bills and have extra money to spend.
