In my opinion, the best part of teaching is to notice that my efforts do matter, I help children and change their beliefs and outlooks on life for the better, and they get and apply knowledge and skills I give them. I enjoy the communication with them, the emotions of happiness, worthiness, and excitement they give me. Moreover, not only do I teach them but also learn from them because children show me their infinite imagination, impetuous admiration for the simple things that surround them, and an insatiable thirst for knowledge and new experiences. Children remind me that it is crucial to live and enjoy your life fully, every minute, and with all your heart, and this is the main advantage of this profession.Unfortunately, there are always different sides of the same coin, and there are some students who do not want to listen to me, understand, and trust me no matter how hard I try. This is rather upsetting and disappointing that I cannot help them not because of the lack of my attempts, but because they are like closed books that do not want to open to anyone. Luckily for me, I have learned some practices to make such children and teenagers believe in me and let me help them. The main idea for good teachers is to “willingly open” themselves to children, and then, students usually also start opening and sharing their dreams and fears.Every day, while working with students, I realize that teaching is indeed my destiny and vocation. I want to make everything possible to become a good and worthy teacher so that I can support children and present their kindness, knowledge, and care. Reference

Some organizations have warned that most secondary school curricula do not include a substantial geology component. Inadequate geological knowledge affects not only university students but also the majority of citizens who finish their secondary studies without having learned any basic geological concepts. The insufficient geological training of pre-university teachers who are later expected to teach some geology generates a certain degree of insecurity and fear about teaching geology. Therefore, it is imperative to improve training for trainee teachers to replace usual ways of thinking about geology teaching with new approaches that promote significant geological learning. This research has a dual objective: first, we analyze whether trainee teachers’ theses include geoscience content; second, we explore how innovative ideas and practices can be translated for educational purposes and to promote geologically significant learning. Our findings reveal that environmental impacts, plate tectonics and the hydrosphere are concurrent topics in the geosciences. However, trainee teachers in Spain prefer to develop biology units because many of them have training in bioscience fields of knowledge. Traditional education based on the exposition of learning material by the teacher was identified as the main learning environment developed in the trainee teachers’ theses. However, the number of innovations incorporated into trainee teachers’ theses has increased. Through this process, trainee teachers have a critical role to play: encouraging their future secondary students to develop geology knowledge.
