View submission: What drives you to stay teaching?
It's better than many other jobs I have done before.
It's not a hamster wheel like customer care or factory work. There's nothing wrong with those jobs, they just bore me to tears.
There is a small degree of freedom and creativity.
I talk about things I like.
Kids may be a tough audience, but they're really interesting and keep me on my toes.
Every day is different. Sometimes in a good way, sometimes...well. No job is perfect.
It's a practical job with practical results, and that's important for me. Tangible results keep me motivated.
Anyway, I still have 20 years to go...I hope I will have the energy to keep going 'til retirement.
There's nothing here!
