Teaching Position Statement

  

I chose the topic of teaching as I have felt strongly inspired to pursue a teaching career instead of nursing as I had planned. All of us in the Church have or will have at some time many opportunities to teach in many capacities.  We will be teachers in church callings, home and visiting teaching, youth activities, in our communities and most importantly, at home.  I have learned there are vital tools to teaching.  It is so important to prepare, to have the Holy Ghost be your guide and to be a great listener.  It is important to teach truth and not to deviate from the provided teaching materials.  I have become so excited to pursue a teaching career but more importantly, to be a more effective teacher in the many teaching roles I already have—most importantly as a mother.
