Being a teacher is...

            What is a teacher? What kind of profession is this? If you try to ask some ordinary people about teacher's work, they will probably say, "It is the one who teaches children",sometimes other says "It is the most tiresome job of all profession", and some says "Teachers? they were one of the top "loaners" here in the Philippines". Very simple and funny terms they used to describe who teachers are like "loaners", "tiresome", etc. etc. But behind those simple terms, is a noble one an inspiration,  a model and a hero.
              Being a teacher is an enjoyable one. Dealing with children and watching them learning?,oh!  the feeling really good,and it brings an unexplainable feeling, right? As a teacher seeing their pupils learning makes them feel contented and happy. Being a teacher is a privilege, since you are given the chance to be like "GOD". We all know that Jesus is a teacher also, who preach and teach about the good news.  
                Like God, who molds us by His own image and likeness, teachers also molds us into a person who are knowledgeable enough, they are also the one who teaches us some values we never learn in our home. Like God who always leads us into the right path and don't allow His people to be in evil actions, teachers also done the same thing. They don't let their students learned something bad, they lead their students into an enchanting world of success and better future.
               A teacher's work is not just simply teaching. They act as second mother/father to their students. Teacher serves as student's second family and home, they make their student feel how to be respected, love and care. A home, for teachers protect their students and keep them safe.
                A teacher is like an actress/actor in a movie, for they pretentiously act as if  they don't have problems and shows in front of the class as a happy, jolly and strong one. They left their problems at home so that their students will not be distracted. Being a teacher is not that easy, most of their time were already occupied. At daytime, they teaches different classes and must maintain the level of their energy. At nighttime,  when they were home already, they still need to do their responsibility with their own family, and after that they have to sacrifice their time to rest for they have to finished their school works like, a lesson plan, and keep the records of their student performances. For me, it is the most noble profession. If I were ask to rank a teacher from 1 to 10?, I will surely gave them a rank score of 10,they should get the highest score out of all profession for they are the reason behind of people's success. "Teacher is a profession, who teaches all other professions". Yes, a noble one!
                Therefore, I am confident enough to say that "I am proud to be a teacher". Being a teacher is not just a profession but also a "paradise" where you can see happy faces and that's because of you.
