I really love my job because I enjoy working with small children and like the challenges and awards from the job.I also think my work is important.There was a time when I thought I would never have that sort of career.
I wasn’t an excellent student because I didn’t do much schoolwork.In my final term I started thinking what I might do and found I didn’t have much to offer.I just accepted that I wasn’t the type to have a career.
I then found myself a job , looking after two little girls.It wasn’t too bad at first.But the problems began when I agreed to live in , so that I would be there if my boss had to go out for business in the evening.We agreed that if I had to work extra hours one week , she’d give me time off the next.But unfortunately , it didn’t often work out.I was getting extremely tired and fed up , because I had too many late nights and early mornings with the children.
One Sunday , I was in the park with the children , and met Megan who used to go to school with me.I told her about my situation.She suggested that I should do a course and get a qualification (资格证书) if I wanted to work with children.I didn’t think I would be accepted because I didn’t take many exams in school.She persuaded me to phone the local college and they were really helpful.My experience counted for a lot and I got on a part - time course.I had to leave my job with the family , and got work helping out at a kindergarten.
Now I have got a full - time job there.I shall always be thankful to Megan.I wish I had known earlier that you could have a career , even if you are not top of the class at school.
