G Very Important
1 If applying for a teaching position, please explain what made you decide to
become a teacher.

I started helping students out with their homework assignments from my high
school days; This made me believe that I might have been destined to be a
professor. I ventured into the university with the same assistance towards freshmen
and sophomore students. This endeavor motivated one of my university instructors,
and he kept to his word by employing me as his Teaching Assistant in Physics.
This is how my passion for teaching grew older and matured,_________________

came across Beacon School, Aburi, Ghana. _____________________________
