My ideal career path

The career path I would like to take after university is teaching. Ideally I would become a lecturer. I’ve always loved education and I would love to be part of someone else’s educational experience one day. I think teachers/ lecturers are very inspiring as they mould the minds of future generations. They tend to play a big part in helping students get on the right path for what they aspire to do in life.

What I like about the career:

  • Always learning
  • Helping students
  • No two days are the same
  • A role model
  • Summer holidays
  • Can make a difference
  • Creatively share passions & knowledge
  • Room for professional growth

What I dislike about the career:

  • Lots of paper work/ marking
  • Having to deal with lazy/ un-cooperative students
  • Can’t make you very wealthy
  • Could be stressful
  • Requires time outside of school hours
