I have a dream. I want to be a teacher in the middle school
where I studied.
The motto which encourages me to chase my dream is
“Teachers’ biggest happiness is to see the children grow up!” I think
teachers are very important people in our life. They teach us
knowledge, help us with our study and help us build up confidence.
If I’m a teacher, I’ll be very patient with my students and try my
best to make my lessons interesting.
In order to become a teacher, I will study hard and get good
grades from now on. I will stick to my dream until it comes true.
