I did a real estate class and they said teachers make excellent real estate agents.  Must be that patient hand-holding and explaining!  You could make big bucks doing that, the process to get a real estate license isn't that difficult, you could be licensed by the end of July or so if you get crackin' now.

It is important that you have an interest or a passion to become a primary school teacher, if not then i think its not worth it. You can only progress in your job if you have an interest otherwise you will be gutted that you ever took on the job.

teachers often make under 30K after getting their degree.  I am right at 30K right now...this is my 2nd year teaching.

Well, it all depends on how much you really like the profession. If it is something that would satisfy you personally that you are really passionate about I say do it if not then look for another career path.

Teaching... You get summers off.  You get excellent benefits.  And, teachers are always in demand.

First, if you want to have a good job and that pay good you need to continue your education. Now, as far as what to do, here you is up to you. You need to think on what you like, are you good in math? do you like to be around children? do you like to help other people? ask this kind of questions to your self and once you get the answers then look at the jobs out there. For example if you are good in math and you like to computers then you might want to go for a career like Engineering, Physics, Computer Science. And remember the higher eduction you get the more chances of getting a job that pays $60,000+

I worked as a bartender/bar manager for the 10 years before I became a middle school reading teacher.  I wanted to teach and I enjoy the time off even though the pay is not that great.

There is a shortage of high school teachers esp for science, math and special ed. Look at the websites for the schools in your area to see the salaries

Teachers here are not paid very well. I don't know why. They are paid about 1/3 what a mainland big city teacher would make. I would suggest actually calling some of the schools here and talk to someone in the school. They are all very friendly and probably wouldn't mind talking to you.

Teaching in high need areas like special ed, math and science make the most if you want to teach, then to make more money work your way up to principle.

I am a retired teacher. I think your best bet would be to go to a teacher's employment agency to see what they have to offer. Usually the one who hires pays the fee.\n\nAlso, you could look in the local papers, particularly on a Sunday where classified ads abound for teacher openings. Look under "Education" in the classifieds.\n\nFurther, The NEW YORK TIMES, Sunday edition is an excellent resource. It was a great help to me when I relocated once in my career.\n\nGood luck.

Yes I would switch.  If the new teacher does not work out, you can switch again.

Depends on the school district, state, etc.  But on average I would have to say about 40k to start out.  Some may pay more or less.  The more education a teacher has and the more experience the more teacher's get paid.  The following is my school districts website that shows teacher salaries. http://www.rusd.k12.ca.us/hr/sal/SalSchedCert.pdf\n You can find them in any school districts website.  I have been teaching for 4 years and I have my masters so that puts me up in the salary scale.  I LOVE MY JOB.  There is a lot that goes into teaching, more than most people think. You get pulled in all different directions and do more than just teach.  It takes a lot of careful planning and dedication.  Be ready for upaid overtime hours (which sounds horrible but I knew coming in to the profession what I was getting myself into) Just be sure that this is truly what you want.  We owe it to our students to like being there everyday to teach them.  :)
