My First Day of School

I have my first day of school on September 29th, 2014.  This is not like any ordinary first day of school.  This time, I am not longer the student but I am going to be the teacher!  I am both excited and nervous at the same time for my new journey.  I have never been on this side of school before and I am worried that my students will not like me.  If someone asked me if I thought I was nice, I would say yes, so I guess that's all I can do.  Show my students that I am their to inspire them and have them learn things in fun and creative ways. Will I be the best teacher?  I really don't know, because I don't think there is no such thing as the "best" teacher, but a teacher who cares for his/her students, and that is what I will do.  I pledge to put my best effort in teaching my students and never give up, even if it may get hard sometimes.
