What Do You Love About Being an ECE Student?

“The inspiration to join early childhood education is the children. They are unique in certain ways. Children are God’s best gift. I believe that we can cultivate many wonderful skills in children. When it comes to my love for children, I have to say that my mother played a big role when I was young. She always emphasized the importance of nurturing and caring for young ones as my mom wanted to become a teacher too when she was younger. Growing up in a nurturing environment, also fueled my desire to contribute positively to the lives of a child. My first day in the Early Childhood Education course, I felt excitement and anticipation. Because of that, I have been eager to further dive into the world of child development and education. There was a sense of wonder and curiosity, wondering what I would learn and how it would shape my future as an educator.”
