I am a rising junior at my college majoring in German.I have been thinking quite some time that maybe I want to be a teacher.
Growing up, I used to tutor kids for free after school (from elementary school up through high school), helping them out, help teaching my friends
For years, the people I've tutored have said, "You should be a teacher- you are good at this." I would always say no, they don't get paid enough- but maybe I would be a professor. I've always wanted to get a masters or maybe a Ph.D .. the thing that excited me the most about getting a PHD was actually the TAing (teaching the class), more so than the research.
I was always the best student in school & when I would understand a subject, I would ask the teacher questions to help my friends, who were confused, to better understand. They didn't know what to ask.
I love sharing knowledge, explaining things, helping others, book work, making study sheets
What are the signs you should be a teacher? what do you think?
