why?!

I guess the reason im here is the same as everyone else on the course, i want to teach. Initially, i wanted to move as far away from home as i could. But a trip away with college soon showed me that i get homesick really easily and i was completely deluded if i thought i could last even a day without being home. Even now i stand by my decision there is no way i could live on my own as i have no sense of money at all.
Most of the course is theory based with us only having a couple of placements in the first year. I think i prefer it that was as you get eased into the school setting. The most recent and first placement i went on was just before christmas. I went to Llangennech Infants school which is the local school for my area. The school means alot to me as it was the school i went to when i was younger and most of my teachers are still there. I was so nervous the first day although i knew most of the staff it was the first time i'd ever been on placement on my own. By the end of the second day the children had really accepted me and saw me more as a teacher than as a friend which was the case when i'd been on placement to a school before. I think the placement confirmed that teaching was the profession for me.
