Teacher as Inspire and Motivator

           As we may know every people have a goal and dream in their life, include me. Every people will have different strategy to reach their goal and dreams. Then, there is a motivation to do the strategy and reach the goal. Based on what I learnt in motivation and management of students for effective learning, motivation is something that can force and give spirit for us to reach our desires, goals or dreams. There are two kinds of motivation, intrinsic motivation and extrinsic motivation. Intrinsic motivation is motivation that comes from ourselves, such as I want to be a teacher because I like teaching and I like children. Meanwhile extrinsic motivation is motivation that comes from another, such as I like mathematic because of the teacher use interesting way when teaching.

            I have experienced about motivation. When I was in senior high school I like biology subject because of my dream to be a doctor, so I like all of material in biology especially material about human organs, such as circulatory and digestive organ in the human body. Then, I like English subject because my teacher gave me a compliment about my score in front of all my friends. He said that I am very good in English and I got the highest score in telling story test. So, I was very happy at that time and I became like English subject.

            From my experienced that I have explained before, I can learn that teacher is very important role for students especially in giving positive spirit and motivation. So, it is an important point for me as a candidate of teacher that I should have skill of how give motivation to my students in the future. Although that, I become thinking over that can I make myself to become an inspiring teacher for my students? I think it is hard to become inspiring teacher. In my opinion not all of people can inspire another and not all people can success become motivator. If I am become a teacher in the future maybe the first step that I will take is do personal approach to all of my students and try to know about their characteristics, so I can know the way to give them motivation especially for learning. Then, it will be my homework to learn more again about all of that.
