My name is Thomas Gauthier and I want to become a teacher. I made this glossary to help people that want to discover what a teacher is dealing with every day. The method I used to do my glossary is I write on a sheet of paper every word that became to my mind when I think about a teacher and school. After that, I choose 20 words that I developed to describe what the teacher uses or do in a day. Now it's your turn to do a glossary about what you want to do in life.
