What’s your favorite part about being a teacher?

The power over children.

Just kidding!

The most rewarding thing for me is getting through to a reluctant or challenging learner – where they feel successful for what they have accomplished and feel like they can carry on with the motivation of succeeding.

That little blip of a smile of a student’s face for what they are capable of make all the bad days worth it.

I’m at the point of needing to consider my career options and being a teacher is definitely up there. Is it a good job? what a things I need to consider?

This is a huuuuge question.  Ask some people you know and who live near you, and get involved in some events near you to experience working with children for yourself.
