I was reading some thread about ATRL members wanting to become teachers and it had me thinking, would you ever want to become one? Teacher as in teaching in a primary/secondary/high school?

Personally I wouldn't want to become one as I wouldn't have the patience to deal with the kids but if it's teaching at daycares/nurseries or primary/elementary school I wouldn't mind.

But secondary/high schools are the worst and some of the kids can be rude and disrespectful. I would end up losing my temper very quickly if a kid was to disrespect me.

I'm hoping to become one so yes.

Maybe when I'm old and bored, I love kids

Hell no.

I don't have the right amount of patience or temper for any of that.

I'd rather be a professor than a teacher.

Yes, I would love to but maybe at University level

The kids get ruder literally every year so no, never.

N E V E R

I'm actually going to try and be one.

Nope. The thought of it makes me

I would've loved being a teacher back when students still had respect for their professors, but with this new generation ...

I would love to work in high school, yes.

**** no, my entire family is basically teachers, and it seems like way more work than it's worth, but they like it i guess

My attempts at tutoring were a struggle and that was usually one child, but a whole classroom

I already work in daycare with grades K-6. I like it well enough, it can be rewarding but I don't think I'd like working for a school district. Especially with older kids.

Yes. I want to work with grades 9-12
