Teaching application form

[mkg80]

I need to put into words the reason why i wish to pursue teaching as a career. Although i know the reasons why, i am having difficulty in putting into words and onto paper.
Can anyone help please ?

It would not come across as 'genuine' if you don't use your own words and thoughts.

If you can't complete this relatively simple task are you sure teaching is for you?

Write down on a blank piece of paper what you want to say in your own words, walk away and leave it for a couple of hours. Come back and re-read it, modify it. Repeat this process until you have something you are happy with.

However I must agree with the above posters comments. are you perhaps trying to write something that you think they want to read (grammatically speaking) ?

Ok, maybe 'difficult' was the wrong word to use !

It was more a case of trying not to sound cheesy and full of clich�s.

Then keep it simple, keep it direct and be honest and be yourself.

Good luck.
