Why I Became a Teacher

Alison Ter Horst (SD '19)
"I originally wanted to be a guidance counselor, so that’s why my major was psychology. But at the time, my advisor in college suggested I should teach for a few years, then go back for my master’s in guidance counseling. But I loved the classroom so much, I never went back for that counseling degree (though I did get a master’s in educational leadership). I’d wanted to go into counseling because of my passion for relationships. I only discovered my passion for the classroom during my student teaching."
