Many people when asked to give the definition of the word family will tell you that it is a group of people related by blood through a common ancestor who share the same goals and characteristics. They will also say this group enjoys spending time together and look forward to visiting each other. Obviously none of these people are related to me. My family shares common ancestors but that is about it. Trust me; we do not share the same goals. If we did, my extremely prejudice paternal elderly relatives would have everyone but themselves sent on a boat to somewhere else. Apparently they still...

I Became a Teacher Because...
ISBN: 9781533607843 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 120 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. When I would tell people that I was a teacher, I would get a response that went something like this: " Boy, are you lucky. You get to sit in a chair all day with your feet on the desk, drink coffee, and just watch little kids work. And for that you get a big old paycheck." My answer to this question was always the same: Where is this imaginary school and where can I get an application?" Trust me the real job of teaching is nothing like that. If you only had to watch the children work each day, that would be great. But there is so much more to the job. Top on the list is discipline. You have...
