My mom, Janet Karr, and I
This is a picture of my mom and I when I was a baby. It may not look like it here, but I always have looked up to her.
Janet Karr is a mother of 4. Currently she is a stay at home mom. She used to be a teacher, she was a sub and taught pre-school. She stopped teaching when she had her first child, my older sister, Caroline. Janet has gone through many tough things in her life but always finds a way to see the positive side. Even if it seems impossible to find something positive in a hard situation, she always finds it. Janet Karr, my mom, is my hero and motivates me everyday.
Why I chose to research Teaching Certificates
I chose how to get a teaching certificate because my hero, my mom, is a teacher. My mom used to teach preschool and then was a sub for awhile. She has inspired me to possibly become a teacher when I grow up. I wanted to research teaching certificates because I didn't really know what they were. At first, I didn’t realize how many rules there were and how many different things you need to go through to get a certificate. Also, I didn’t realize how many other things you could get to be a teacher rather than a certificate. This subject really interested me. It also made it really special knowing that this is what my mom went through. Knowing that she went through this and is now a teacher, it inspires me even more.
