Factors within my daily environment that are supportive to
me is having a loving, caring family, wonderful coworkers, and incredible
children that I care for and their families.
I know that I can call on my family for anything and they will be there
with good advice, encouraging words, and support. When I’ve had a stressful day I know I can
call my mom or dad to lift my spirits.
They are always motivating me to do better, because they believe in
me. My parents also tell me how proud
they are of me, which is a great feeling to know that what you are doing is not
in vain. My coworkers are a great
support because they motivate me to be a better teacher and constantly improve
on myself. When I see them each day with
their positive attitudes and willingness to be patience with the children and
their families, it motivates me to be even better. Their good traits rub off on me and vice
versa. The children that I teach provide
support because they are reason I enjoy doing what I do. Their excitement about learning and the
smiles and hugs I receive each day is enough motivation for me to overlook the
challenges of teaching and embrace the positives.
Another factor in my daily environment that I find to be
supportive is my faith in God. I read
the Bible daily and use it as a driven force to get me through each day. Support doesn’t necessarily have to be
someone it can be something as well.
I don’t know what I would do without my strong support
system. It would be difficult for me to
enjoy my job and teaching if I had coworkers that had negative attitudes and students
that weren’t excited about learning. It
would hard for me emotionally if I couldn’t call on my parents for advice or encouragement. And if I lost my faith in God I don’t know
where I would be or the type of situation I would be in. I would probably be in a slight state of
depression if I didn’t have my support system.
