You must be confident in yourself and your knowledge, I can't stress this enough. Teaching is not telling kids to be quiet and lecturing about standards of social behavior. Pricipals are smarter than teachers. These are the 2nd dumbest collection of ignorts in education. As you can see, teachers are quite bright comparatively, because they are doing something valuable.
Teachers are dumb.
My MCAT scores would have landed me a place anywhere I wanted. Teaching has no prestige. Don't do something because other think it is repectful. The study of Education is not important. Anything that can make the human race smarter, I am down for.
