There are moments or days when I lose my patience, but generally I am patient. I would not be patient dealing with elementary school students, however. I have helped out in all different elementary grades, and I get easily frustrated when students don’t know certain information, like what number comes after 5 or how to spell “the.” It always depends on the situation and what aspects of teaching you prefer. Try volunteering in classrooms to see what you’d prefer and if you could handle it.
