ABOUT ME
My Principle of Teaching
In my opinion, teaching is something that is wonderful and it is a
good deed. Teaching is the process where a teacher teaches an
individual a knowledge that brings goodness to oneself and the
world. I want to become a teacher where students can gain
knowledge and give positive impact on them. I want my students to
remember what I have taught and spread that knowledge to others.
