I didn't like to be a teacher. However, I find myself as a teacher. Now, I am a teacher for Korean students. I've never thought that I would be a teacher. This profession makes me fulfilled. Teaching is learning twice. You learn from the book and you learn from your students too. How fulfilling it is whenever someone says thank you. How fulfilling it is whenever someone you see them doing what you have taught. As an English teacher I get enough salary that compensate all of my expenses and needs.

Being a teacher is one of the "nobel" professions. But it is important to understand that everyone is not cut out to be teachers. Working with children can be very enjoyable but it also has its challenges. Remember, as a teacher it is your job to convey society's concepts of what should be taught, which at times may not agree with your concept of what the children should learn. Teaching is also about finding a child's hidden talents and abilities within a structured environment and showing the children how to develop these to enhance the child's life. Mostly, it is a profession where the fruits of your labors may not be felt for many years. When those children are all grown up and come back to visit you and tell you how you affected their lives. If you do decide to become a teacher, i believe their are two things you should remember most. The first is that a teacher never stops learning because when they do, they cease educating. The second is that all teachers are not true educators. Hope this helps. Good luck.

My sister is been a good teacher for ten years now. She said that it is a very tiring,stressful but rewarding job. I don't think everything even monetary salary can compensate for the hard work the teachers convey in their jobs. It''s easier to think but hard to do. It takes commitment and perseverance to excel in this job. being a teachers you must be prepared for the many emotions involved and talking to a real teacher can bring you insight on what and how it feel to have this kind of job. It maybe rewarding but do you have the skill and patience to nurture young minds? If you had then go on.

Teaching is not an easy job,it is one of the most noble profession. Besides,without a teacher there could be no doctors or lawyers. The other profession owe their careers from the teachers who teaches us our basic education. I admire my teachers before becoz of their patience and perseverance of teaching kids. Teaching is not all about the salary,but it about the passion and desires of one person. And not everyone had that passion and willingness to teach. Have a good Sunday and happy mylotting

Becoming a teacher is quite a noble profession. It does not offer the greatest monetary gifts but there are other rewards to this profession that are much greater. The chance to nurture the education of another is something to be proud of.

Teaching is a very noble profession. The thought of shaping the minds of your future generations would thrill and amaze you. But it should also come with great responsibility. As much as you teach you would learn as much too. I'm sure you have what it takes to be a teacher. By all means, "Please!"

HI Christiana! I am glad that you love teaching! Me too, I also love working with kids being, surrounded by them. I want to mold them to their full potential. I agree with you that most people think that working as a teacher doesnt make a living. Don't get bothered by them. Just work well for your students. I know they really find you a great teacher.

Hi christiana. I feel the teacher is a great job. My mother is a teacher. true that the teacher do not bring an abundance of life, but I believe it is enough for you happy. If you really loved as teacher, you can be sure that there are plenty of kids and children's family will love you, when you're really a good teacher. special,when you have children, your child will really proud to be a mother is a teacher, as I've ever seen in my mother.

To be a teacher is a noble job. Some would it is not but others would not be so powerful without their teachers. Motivation to teach creates a huge impact among people - it brings excitement that could be passed among the students for them to learn as well. Put a smile always and learning will be fun and not just exhausting.

I am currently give private tuition in Singapore. As i am currently still studying, i find that giving tuition gives me more income compared to other part-time work. When i was young, it was my aspiration to become a teacher when i grow up. However, as time goes, i find that teachers need to be really patient and likes children. If not, it will be very easy to lose one's head especially when the students are not listening to you. However, if you are really passionate about teaching, then go ahead and take the exam. Do things that you are interested in and there'll be no regrets.
