Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences According to the Merriam Webster dictionary, a teacher is defined as one who teaches or ones whose occupation is to instruct. A good definition however in today's society I believe that the teacher's role has more meaning and is not that simple. And as the years go by it has continued to grow. Before starting my career as a teacher I highly agreed with the first definition but after spending a little over six months inside of the classroom I realize how much more a teacher role can be.

Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences Over the years of teaching, I have had the experience to work with many teachers from all over the world.
