Actually, I find that my real job is being a teacher. Though my focus is creating, designing, and building technology my struggle is teaching people to use it. This could be teaching customers to order products themselves, or just teaching my boss about what I did and how I make him money. I see teaching as more than communication, because communication is one sided – it’s output. Teaching requires output and input, I need to communicate out, then accept input so I can learn and adjust my message to the student. My goal is to be a teacher, a person people come to and get answers that make sense to them. I’ve found just in teaching my own kids that everyone learns differently, so making the content adaptable to the student is my number one job. What I need is help learning about teaching styles, tools and techniques that match to learning styles. 15 months ago

Why?
Because I don’t want to be a classroom teacher any more; I want to earn my masters and become a specialist.
