TEACHERS IN WAITING T's 8:30 dm.: The Tordy bell jusT rong. The clossroom is filled. Mrs. Thomos is sTonding in fronT of o new closs preporing The lesson. She is o new sTudenT Teocher who feels she is on The edge of The TwilighT zone. Mrs. Thomos wenT To Songer High School: yes, she once wos o high school sTudenT Too. She oTTended Bokersfield SToTe UniverslTy in Colifornio. Now she is oTTending UTD for her Teocher's cerTificoTe. She hod been working oT o non-profiT bird rehobiliToTion cenTer when she discovered she would like To be o Teocher. Biology hos olwoys been inTeresfing To her, especiolly zoology. The one Thing, oTher Thon fundomenToIs, ThoT she would like To Teoch her sTudenTs is ThoT iT's enjoy- oble To leorn jusT for The soke of leorning. To her, o Teocher needs To discipline, buT iT reolly depends on The sTudenTs' oTTiTudes. Mrs. Thomos feels ThoT sTu- denTs ond Teochers shouldn'T be friends buT They con be confidonTes. Her nexT gool, oTher Thon being The besf Teocher she con be, is To possibly become d mdrine biologisT. CompuTers ore The fuTure of The business world, ond high school sTudenTs ore The fuTure businessmen ond women. The Two need To merge. Mrs. Lommers wenT To high school in Richordson oT Loke Highlonds ond Then To EosT Texos SToTe UniverslTy. She chose ThoT school becouse iT hod o good Teoching progrom ond becouse she would be close To home buT for enough owoy for independence. Teoching hos olwoys been whoT she wonTed To do. She hos olwoys liked working wiTh young people, so Teoching wos o logicol choice. She hos Two degrees - one in business educoTion ond onoTher in physicol educoTion. A high school shorThdnd Teocher influenced her decision To work for her busi- ness degree. Besides ocodemics she hopes To Teoch her sTudenTs To be responsible ond orgonized. Like oTher Teochers, she believes ThoT o sTudenT-Teocher relofionship should be friendly buT musT be moinToined. MoTh hos olwoys come eosy for Ms. Kline. CDon'T you wish iT hod for you'?j She wenT To W. W. Somuel High School in PleosonT Grove ond is now oTTending UTD for her Teocher's cerTificoTe. She decided To become o Teocher when she wos midwoy Through school: she hod inTended To become on engineer. Ofher Thon ocodemics, she would like To Teoch her sTudenTs To hove high self-esfeem ond To hove o good self-imoge. Since sTudenTs Tend To TesT Their own limiTs, she feels ThoT o Teocher hos To show discipline. Ms. Kline doesn'T hove ony higher gools oTher Thon being o Teocher. STudenTs ond Teochers, in her opinion, should keep Their disTonce buT be close enough To core. i Q, -' . L mln, 'I 3 ., f -my . if I 116 K' The Thigh bone connecfed To The knee bone T N. V , . ,. 'S
