Dennis Roeder on the Best Job in the World

After he graduated from the University of Sydney where he earned his Bachelor of Education degree, Dennis Roeder started to teach in an elementary school where he quickly became one of the students’ favorite teachers. His devotion and energy, which partly come from the fact that he is still very young himself, allow him to do an exemplary job day in and day out. When asked about why he thinks that this job is the best in the world, he has his reasons.

You Can Learn New Skills

The university does a great job at teaching the main skills, but working with children means that from time to time, you will find yourself in unique situations. These situations can include learning how to run a club in the school, or breaking up a fight when the participants cannot even hear you. What’s absolutely sure is that you will learn something new, period.

Improving Your Community Skills

Being a teacher means that you are an important part of a community, whether you are ready for that role, or not. If your interpersonal skills are not necessarily your biggest strength, becoming a teacher can be an excellent way to improve them. In this role, you are required to build relationships not just with your student, but also with their parents, and the rest of the faculty. It’s a sink or swim situation, really.

Dennis Roeder is a devoted teacher and a valuable member of the local community, who consistently takes on tasks that allow him to do his part in making the school district a better place.
