I believe that teaching and learning can both be challenging at times. For example, a teacher might not feel that they are doing a good enough job; or they might feel horrible if they cannot help a particular child understand something. The diffculties of learing could be obviously not understanding what is being taught.
I believe learning is something that is a gift that should not be taken for granted. Most of the towns and cities around the United States have pretty good schools for kids to go to; but in other countries there are children that are not getting any education. For those kids, learning is something that they probably do not know.
I truly believe that not everyone can be a teacher. A person might be able to do all that is necessary to become a teacher; but when it comes down to actually teaching the kids that desire for wanting to help kids learn might not be there. I believe that a teacher needs the desire to WANT to help kids learn. I am sure that teaching can be very stressful at times; but if that determination and desire is there, the stress could be channeled into something that could help make the teacher grow as a human being and as an educator.

I WANT to help kids learn. I WANT to see them understand. I NEED to help kids understand concepts from school and life. I love that you said that. It is so true! I think that everyone could be a teacher (we all are teachers at some point - there is always someone watching your actions!), but that not everyone could BE a teacher. They can act the role, but not be it. To be a truly effective teacher, you must love and have a passion for helping others, whether with school or life!
