learn to teach

Becoming a teacher has been incredibly fulfilling; however, be prepared to give 100%. This is not a Monday through Friday, 8 to 3:30 job that runs 9 months only! Most teachers work late every afternoon, work weekends, and throughout summer preparing for the next academic year. This is the “norm” in education today. Summer teaching is becoming a necessity to make ends meet. Most teachers do not get paid anywhere near what they should. Be prepared to be poor!
