5. Summary My calling in life is to be a teacher. I’ve been down several career paths in life but I always end up at teaching. I want to teach because I want to make a difference in someone else’s life even if it is a small one. I want to be a role model for them to look up. At the end of each work day I want to look back and say yes, I am doing the right thing.
