ARDI WHO ASPIRES TO BE A TEACHER

In a small village on the slopes of a mountain, there lived a boy named Ardi. Ardi is the only child of a married couple, Mr. Ilham and Mrs. Ayu, who work as farmers in the verdant terraced rice fields. Ardi grew up as a smart and energetic boy, always eager to learn new things and dreaming big for his future.

Since childhood, Ardi often told his parents that he wanted to be a teacher. He was inspired by Bu Tuti, a young teacher at their village school who was friendly and knowledgeable. Whenever Bu Tuti taught, Ardi always sat at the front, following every word that came out of the teacher's mouth carefully. He was amazed by the way she explained lessons in an easy-to-understand manner and was always willing to help her students.

However, Ardi's dream of becoming a teacher was not easy to pursue. Their village is located far from a big city and education facilities are limited. The elementary school where he studied had only a few teachers and limited textbooks. Despite this, Ardi never gave up. Every day after returning home from school, he spent time reading books borrowed from the small library in his village. He studied diligently, not only the lessons taught at school, but also read about famous teachers and how they inspired generations.

When Ardi became a teenager, the challenges grew. He had to face national exams to continue to secondary school. Although he did not prepare as much as his friends from the city, Ardi remained optimistic and persistent in his studies. As a result, Ardi managed to pass the exam with a score good enough to continue to a secondary school in a nearby city. This was his first step towards his dream of becoming a teacher.

In high school, Ardi met Mr. Bambang, a highly dedicated teacher who always encouraged his students to excel. Ardi soon became Mr. Bambang's favorite because of his intelligence and exceptional learning spirit. Mr. Bambang saw great potential in Ardi and provided a lot of support and encouragement to continue pursuing his goals.

During his time in high school, Ardi was also active in various extracurricular activities related to education and leadership. He became the president of the student council and often organized social activities to increase interest in reading among his peers. All these experiences strengthened Ardi's resolve to become a great teacher and influence many people.

After graduating from high school, Ardi took the college entrance exam for his major in Education. He felt very nervous and tense facing such a competitive exam. However, thanks to the preparation and support from his family and Mr. Bambang, Ardi passed and was accepted into one of the country's leading universities. Life in the big city opened Ardi's eyes to a wider and more diverse world of education.

In college, Ardi not only learned about educational theories, but also hands-on practice in partner schools that had collaborated with his college. He spent his free time as a teaching assistant to assist the teachers at the school. This experience was very valuable for Ardi because he could learn directly from experienced education practitioners.

When he finished his studies, Ardi had the opportunity to join an internship program abroad. He chose to go to developed countries known for their innovative education systems. There, Ardi explored various modern teaching methods and exchanged experiences with teachers from various countries. This experience made him even more convinced that education is the key to changing the future of children and the next generation of the nation.

After returning home, Ardi immediately plunged into the world of education with great enthusiasm. He registered as a prospective teacher at the village school where he grew up, hoping to make a major contribution to education in his village. Despite the limited facilities at the village school, Ardi did not give up. He used his creativity to teach by utilizing technology and resources around him.

Over time, Ardi became a role model for his students and the village community.
