Hi friends
My aim was to become a teacher. But with time, the interest in this field is fading. I want to be a businessman, that is to have my own business. But still I am attached to the desire to become a teacher.
Do you want to become a teacher?
I would really appreciate if you respond to this discussion sincerely.
Thanks for the response.

please don't take this in the wrong way, frankly i will say that i will not opt for the teaching profession because i don't have the patience nor the interest.
that's that but most of them consider the "money" factor.
but nowadays the values and morals in the profession has gone down and i feel that education has become more or less a business.simply that.
this is what i think.
good day :)

You are right but not completely because we can't generalize that education has become a profession as not all teachers teach with the aim to earn money, some do teach sincerely for the sake of education. Thanks for the response friend.

yes i myself have come across a few who teach wholehearted and not for the sake of money but it is not about the teachers because education does not involve only teachers ..there is the management, the parents,teachers.... overall called the system its not just the student teachers interaction,,, in the system called education purity is still hard to find.
you are right there are teacher who teach with their heart who want their students to be well educated and disciplined, but the nail that sticks out gets hammered.

I know that teaching does not involve only schools and colleges, it encompasses the world Universe because it is said that 'Education starts in the womb and ends in the tomb'..further debates also suggest that education never ends,we always keep learning. Honesty is hard to find when it is related to education because many people do share knowledge for money...I said "many" but not all my friend.
I hope you agree.
Thanks

After college I did consider teaching in preparation for the board exams but the wind blew the other way; instead of pursuing a career in my field of expertise I ventured into sales. If it's your dream to teach then I suggest you pursue it. You don't want to get old and look back someday telling yourself "what if..." cuz you didn't do all the things you wanted in your life. You can start as a part time teacher. You can be both a teacher and a businessman. Good luck!

Yes! I do love my job. I don't like an eight hour desk job and I love to talk plus I get to be in the field all the time. That's why I think I'm pretty successful at least the way I see it. hehehe. Who knows, in the future I might be just like you an entrepreneur. I am hoping really. I'm tired of reporting to a boss. Good luck to the both of us! See you around.
