Would you recommend teaching as a career? I’m a freshman in college and am debating it since I’ve had so many teachers that have inspired me and taught me so much about life and were such great role models. I know Summer’s off is a bonus but I feel like the job market isn’t very good and teachers are increasingly getting treated poorly. But overall would you recommend it? Thank you

I truly enjoy what I do.  There’s a lot of crap with parents, admin, job market, but  I love it.  You would have to decide for yourself what you want to do.  Just because I recommend it doesn’t mean it’s good for you.  If you truly want to teach, you can work through the crap.  Take some time to volunteer in schools, talk to some teachers you know, and see if you enjoy it.
