I believe that teaching is an interesting profession. You can express your self here well before your pupils. This is sacred profession of messenger of knowledge. Teachers are respectable to all the people who are fond to learn. Teachers care all of their students and share their studies and experience with their students. A well teacher is that who can administer the valued time and act on schedule to keep them in progress. Being a teacher I would teach the pupil as I am offering prayer.

This is so true. Teaching is an interesting profession, basically because you tend to share something about yourself to your students in the process, and in a way you affect their lives, it may not manifest soon, but eventually, you will realize the kind of impact you have made in their lives a year or years after. :D

At the moment teaching isn't a field I'd recommend for anyone. Our current presidential administration has placed education very low on the priority list. To appease the people who are demanding the education system be fixed, the president dumped the whole problem in the lap of the schools and individual teachers -- No Child Left Behind. This law makes teachers responsible for the success of the children without any financial backing. Teachers are highly underpaid and overworked under the present system. They are also buying a lot of their own materials. If and when we get a president who is willing to work to fix education, then I might recommend the profession.
