Aaron Quilty's The Job Finder: Why I chose to be a Teacher

Introduction

This is a blog on an Assessment Instrument in regards to a subject called 'Professional Skills'. It is an individual response where I will be analysing my Professional Skills by using a range of different literatures that I have learnt throughout the years of my study at Central Queensland University. This assessment piece will also come in handy for when I commence full time work as a Learning Manager (Teacher) in the near future.

This assessment will include the development of complex work to identify and evidence the Professional Skills that I have developed in regards to contemporary literature.

In this case, the scenario that has been assigned to me by my lecturer is:

You are just about to complete your CQUniversity studies and you are Seeking Employment.

I wanted to be a teacher from the age of ten after my journey in South East Africa. I felt as if we had everything in Australia and looking at the people in Africa and developing nations, I thought that I have everything to give to these people. We are so blessed to live in a Country like Australia and I don't want to be like the majority of the people that live here and take it for granted. I want to be able to make a difference, one way or another. However, throughout my journey over the past few years at university there are many young people here in Australia that isn’t as beneficial as I am. So with my experience that I gain here I will be able to take that and use it to be able to be the difference throughout the world.
