What does it mean to be a professional? Am I a teacher 24 hours a day? What does that mean? What do you think is expected of you as a student in the Faculty of Education?

To be professional means to display proper behaviour in different settings (work, school, home, in public, etc.). Currently I do not think I am a Teacher 24 hours a day. But as a teacher-to-be I will have to work on becoming a teacher 24 hours a day. Being a teacher 24 hours a day means showing the same kind of professionalism from work and bring it into your social and public life as well.

As a student in the Faculty of Education, I believe that I am expected to begin to demonstrate the aspect of professionalism that a teacher would.
