"I want to be a teacher because it is the one profession I have realised requires me to live with my heart on my sleeve, unapologetically."

"I grew up believing I could be anything I wanted to be in the world. I was able to use my imagination because I was exposed to various ideas throughout my learning at school."

"I wanted to be a teacher because, beyond the limitations of the classroom and the challenges we face every day, teaching is about being part of the growth of other individuals."
