Why work in education?

I would work as an educator in a school system if I were a Speech Pathologist. I have a friend who does it and loves it. The best teachers are usually the children's favorites. I'm guessing she's great because they all love her. I would like to become more involved with special needs because of    how rewarding it would feel to teach them something new. Those kids are all so kind hearted and I believe everyone deserves a top-notch education. I feel like if you love what you're doing, other people are loving it too. It's a win-win situation, the children love what you're doing for them and you love what you are doing.

There are a couple of great teacher blogs that I've read:

My favorite of the blogs was definitely Eric Sailers' blog. It was the most whole-hearted blogs. It is about the connection he had made with one of his patients and what inspired him to really become an SLP and name his child after one of his patients! I really love stories such as this one because they are so close to heart and really dig down to the purpose of your career choice. These are the reasons why I would like to pursue this major/career.
