This answer should come more from the heart. There really is no wrong answer to this, so long as you are genuine. As a teacher to young students, you take on several roles. You teach students how to interact and communicate with each other, on top of the academic skills you teach. Consider your role and commitment in the development of the whole child and share your approach to this aspect of the job.

"I am humbled by how important my role as a reading teacher is in all aspects of a child's life. Helping a student learn to read, strengthen their skills, and build their confidence is an incredible opportunity. When a child understands how to read, and enjoys it, it changes their whole world. Reading allows students to feel more confident in their skin and learn to communicate better with others. I love the opportunity to help develop their social skills as well."
