Content: It can be difficult to work with many other adults, who are all set in their ways and unwilling to compromise, without feeling out of place or mistreated. Some people just don’t do well with these types of work environments or the negativity that adults can sometimes bring to the table, and that’s why they would prefer to work with young children who are eager to learn. Although there are other issues present in a room full of small children, there is generally not the same level of conflict that can be present in a workplace with several adults. Children want to please their teacher, and they will generally choose right over wrong because of that. They love making new friends with one another, and as mentioned above, they show up each day with an energy that is contagious and fun. You are optimistic. A teacher should not be “glass half empty” type of person. There will be days when it feels like nothing is working and the work is all a waste of time. These are the days that teachers go home, take a deep breath and come back the next day to try something new. They do it because they know what’s at stake, and they are passionate about the importance of teaching students.
