The Happiness Of Teaching

The way of teaching is a trail consisting of thousand to experiencies, enrich the life of teachers and this to confirm an April afternoon in Grandmother Clara’s house. On day told me the history of who was in his youth your best friend, her name is Anita and started his career when she was 16 years old and just finished the school. Anita never imagine your life as a teacher, in fact, she dreamed of being a big doctor, but for many things of the life, Anita derided started in the university a degree on basic education.

Initially all this seemed really madness but after a time not long this seemed a madness, made sense and heart started of born many feelings towards teaching. When all started she only had a big curiosity that led to inquire, to investigate, read many pedagogues and there theories, and little by little, without was inadvertently falling for this walk. 

Anita took pains every day in the school, to strove always for innovate and their classrooms look full of joy, color, fantasy and laughter, that years ago would become in dreams and goals come true, doctors, priests, teachers, engineers, managers and many other professionals that had been passed through the hands of Anita “the pretty teacher” (how affectionately called by his students) and right now return how mother’s and father’s of family, for entrust their sons which was her teacher, for beside her, build his way of life for everyone their small beings for every day was forming.

Long after, when she was 85 years old, regrettably Anita died, but she died leaving many generations of grateful heart for her time, her dedication, for her care and her big love to give alive for every student.

When my grandmother finished to talk to me, I understood, becoming a teacher is not only to study the theory of parget, Chomsky, skinner or Vygotski, becoming a teacher is also to feel love  those beings who educte daily, fall in love every day more of that work which they carry, and the moment where this love is borned, acquite the capacity to equilibrate the knowledge and feeling in perspective for this to educate well beings for society. Oh, and I forgot one thing, I am Ana Lucia Jaramillo9 and in two months I will graduate proudly as a TEACHER. It was a pleasure to share with you this history and all teacher who read this, have this to vocation born always in your heart.
