The Webster’s Dictionary defines “mission” as “task assigned”.

If teaching is your mission then it means:

a. It is the “task” entrusted to you in this world.

b. It is your assigned task thus you’ve got to prepare for it!

c. It calls for a continuing professional education.

Teaching as a vocation

The word “vocation” comes from the Latin word “vocare” which means “to call” thus vocation is a “call”.

For Catholics, the CALLER is GOD Himself.

For Non-believers, the CALLER might be a man calling another man.

“Many are called but few are chosen”

If teaching is your vocation then it means:

You said YES to your call to teach!

You commit yourself in the total transformation of the learner.

You consider teaching as a lifetime commitment thus aim through the years towards quality teaching.

“Teaching may not guarantee financial security but love of teaching has served as a motivating factor to many teachers through the years”. Teaching has remained inspiring & fulfilling.
