Why I Became a Teacher

Leslie Sullivan (SC '19)
"I knew that I wanted to be a teacher from the time I was in middle school because I was lucky enough to have so many great teachers myself. I originally thought I would teach elementary school because I really liked working with younger students. But then I had a couple of really incredible teachers in high school that made me change my mind. It seemed like such fun to be able to challenge high school students while having a large impact on their life, both socially and emotionally. My original plan was to be a math teacher, but in college I realized I was much more passionate about the humanities and decided to become a history teacher."
