Math Teacher


Where do I see myself in three years

that's always a popular question

hopefully not the base of a students fears

since I usually use a happy expression

 

But first i have to finish college

in order to work in the classroom

I first have to aquire the necessary knowledge

and my mind shall bloom

 

Once i receive my license

and have my Bachelor's degree

then i shall give them guidance

so students can become they best they can be

 

Yes, there will be some struggling

but i will work to assure my students prevail

since life involves constant juggling

and maybe help a student could go to Yale

 

Why become a math teacher

not the most luxiurious career

although now I may sound like a preacher

i like helping people get to their high gear

 

The job's best feature

is seeing students succeed

since they are the future

and that's all I need
