Each person has a dream. My dream job is to be an excellent teacher. I
think teachers can teach students many things to make them successful in the
future. I think it is a pleasure to try my best to make my students learn knowledge
as much as possible. That would help them get a bright future. Now many
children in poor areas can't get good education. I dream of being an excellent
teacher who can help them open up their mind and get a nice future. So from now
on, I must work hard to achieve my dream.
