Any teachers here?

I love teaching. I found it one of the most rewarding things I ever did.

What grade did you teach? I think I would truely enjoy teaching. I love helping a child fulfill their curiousities. If I don't knw the answer I will find it for them. I always enjoyed helping friends & classmates with school work in high school & college. I once helped a girl in my management class with her calculus. I spent 2-3 hours tutoring her. She got a D on her first test (the one I didn't help with) and a B on the one I did help with. I have to talk to my career counselor to see, but my options are Elem. ED. Highschool math. college professor in math, business, or psychology. My husband thinks getting a PhD in math would be really boring, & I wasn't like a math genius I was good at it & could show it to others, but that was all. My husband is worried about my safety & sanity as a high school teacher. I'm kind of a pushover & he thinks I would have a hard time being authoritative with high schoolers. Plus i look barely out of high school myself.

I think that you've been given some really good things to think about. There are pros and cons to teaching so make sure that you talk to alot of people and consider carefully what you want to do. I think that teaching would be very fulfilling. Good luck with what ever you decide to do!
