Is teaching a fun job? I believe teaching is more rewarding than fun although any job is what you make of it. IF you want the job of teaching to be fun as well as rewarding than you have to make it fun.

Here is the states many students thinks the subject of English is boring, after all we all speak it. A boring subject is hard to get across to some students. Making the subject fun for you to teach also makes it fun for the student to learn.

I remember way back in the 5th grade we had to learn the Capitals of all, then, 48 States. Mr. Dorey our teacher made a game of it. Boys against the girls with extra recess time for the winning team. Everyone on each team had to be able to look at the map, name the state and it's Capital. Looking back this game not only made learning these things more fun but it developed team work as well. The game ended in a tie and we all had an extra recess.

So can teaching be fun? I believe the answer to that question is yes. My niece is a elementry school math teacher. She loves math and always has. She loves teaching. What she does not love is the paperwork. Then again every job has something you won't like about it.

Ironic that you want to be an english teacher!

Enough of the sly insults.

Most teachers do it for the right reasons: because they enjoy spreading their knowledge to those who are eager to learn.

That's the romantic way of thinking of it. The fact is, children can be very difficult. They're bodies and minds are changing, they are emotional, and their hormones are going through the roof. This can make it difficult. It is also difficult with the whole dealing with children that do not want to learn, and there are plenty of these.

My advice is to actively look around your school. See the problems, see what teachers do, ask your teachers what they think about their job, and speak to your careers adviser if you have one.

If you still want to do it, then go for it. It's hard work, of course. Nothing is easy. But if you really want to become a teacher, then no one can stop you.

I should add that the pay is not great also.

Good luck.
