Why I Became a Teacher

July 6, 2015
Anthony Petrelis (MA ’14)

Anthony Petrelis gets some help talking to the media.

Anthony’s “love for helping others” influenced his decision to become a teacher.

“I get a lot of gratification in helping people and students achieve their goals. I know that I sometimes struggled in school and had difficulty with concepts, so I want to be there for the children like my teachers were there for me.” (Fifth-grade teacher at McGlynn Elementary School in Medford, MA)
