My Future Profession

Let me introduce myself. My full name is Elena Petrova. I finished school last year. Now I am a student at the Samara State Pedagogical University.

There are many interesting and useful professions but I like the profession of a teacher. I began to think about my future profession at the age of 12. I was born in the family of teachers. My mother is a teacher and my grandfather was a teacher, too.

When I was a little girl, I went to school with my mother attending her lessons.

Now I am a student and I understand that I need a profound knowledge in the chosen field. That is why I entered the Samara State Pedagogical University last year. Now I am a student of the primary education faculty.

My dream has always been to become a teacher. I am sure that it is the most interesting and noble profession. I have chosen this profession as my future occupation a long time ago. For me, choosing a career is not only a matter of future prestige and wealth. In my opinion, a job should be interesting and socially important. I am very well aware of the fact that the profession of a teacher in a primary school is always important. It gives plenty of opportunities to help children to learn reading, writing, counting and I want to teach children to love their families, their country and their friends.

I hope I’ll manage to study only with good and excellent marks to be a skilled teacher.
