      Yep! I wanted to be a primary school teacher! It’s what my mum does, and I always thought that she had a super cool job!
      In the end, my curiosity for science was greater than my wish to be a primary teacher, which is why I becomes a scientist. There’s still time for me to go back and teach though!
