Should I become an elementary teacher?  

answers 0:I was reading on Y!A and a lot of them are negative comments. The pay isn't good and it's stressful and you don't get paid summers. That does bother me a bit but I would like to teach at the same time. Like I was gonna become som type of dental hygienist or nurse but I'm taking anatomy in hs and it's soooo hard. So I doubt I'll make it in college. I'm moving to Austin Texas right after I graduate and my dad says if I'm gonna become one I should try to get jobs subbing elementary kids. I'm going got try to see if I like it. If I do should I major in it? I know if I like it I should do it and whatever but really in all honesty is it really worth it?...Show moreanswers 1:The pay isn't good because one only works 9 months a year.If you get a second job in the summer as well as maybe another job at the school during the year (coaching, etc...), one can do fairly well I hav! e been told.
