Evaluate

Alice from "Alice in Wonderland" is my motivation. Her primary goal is defeat the red queen who is pure evil and give the white queen back ownership of Wonderland. 

Her motivation from two perspectives would be humanistic and cognitive. Alice was internally determined to save wonderland because all of her friends there that she met her first trip were suffering under the red queens rule. She failed wonderland in a movie previously before so in order for her to have self fulfillment, she must succeed. 

Relate 

 I believe in having a strong relationship with my students. I want them to be in a classroom where they know someone cares about them and that the teacher is not just earning a paycheck. By demonstrating a certain level of compassion for your students, they feel more comfortable with you as a teacher. 

By nurturing their open minds, a teacher can be successful. It is important to let the students ask questions and let them think for themselves. Children are full of imagination and ideas, and too often teachers take their intuitive instinct away from them by not letting them share their ideas or punishing them when they make a mistake out of the exploration of their imagination.
