If you have a plan to take up teaching as a profession,
I jolly well congratulate you. You have made a good choice but first of all you have to ask yourself some questions before embarking on the long, at times stressful career.
1. Are you inspired to impart your skills and knowledge to the young minds?
2. Do you have the patience to motivate slow learners to break records?
Teaching can be fun for those who like to take the young minds of the world and impart knowledge to them while creating a space where learning and inspiration can take place. Good teachers inspire and motivate students to learn at the same time respecting cultural backgrounds and different mindset.
Good teachers never give up teaching slow learners to break records. It is good and dedicated teachers that make the difference in our lives.
If you like what is described here, you are the best prospective teachers.
Teaching as compared to other professions may not be so attractive in terms of monetary rewards in the beginning. There are people prefer some high profile paying jobs as teaching may have a low starting salary assume everything being the same for fresh degree graduates. But it is not the monetary rewards that dampened the spirit of good teachers.
It is the achievements and pleasant memories that always motivate them to push on and hike new records
We always remembered the good times during our school days. It was very often the good teachers that made us laugh in our student days and inspired the students to pass the boring subjects with flying colors.
Over the years a teacher may have taught more than a thousand students. Some senior teachers could have taught more than five thousand students.
All those young minds could be future millionaires, engineers, professors, teachers and all sorts of professions you can think of who have direct impact on the country. Who knows the future president of United States could be one of your high school students
Can you imagine the satisfaction of a teacher’s achievement from their teaching job?
Teachers can receive more benefits than other jobs. There is no teaching on the weekends, holidays, and the summer. However, teachers will be paid extra for participating in summer programs. Teachers also receive more funding for upgrading than other jobs - such as private scholarships and federal funding for teaching programs.
So are you prepared to become a teacher?
The road ahead is challenging but very rewarding. If you have decided to become a highly qualified teacher, first take up teacher certification program and make sure you pass the exams.
