It should be done then. I'm obviously not an educator but I think I would really enjoy being a teacher. I've done enough tutoring to know I've got a bit of a talent for it, and I really enjoy watching ideas click in people's heads. I wouldn't do it at this point in time though. Y'all don't get paid enough considering what I can make in the engineering field and well the system seems to be a bit of a mess.
It's an interesting topic though, and one that isn't discussed nearly enough.
I completely agree.
Teaching is a calling, kinda like going in to the ministry, you don't enter in to it because you want to be rich. You do it because you were "called" in to it.

Yeah, but that ends up excluding people who we want to be teachers.

The problem with this line of thought is you're progressively losing potential teachers, good teachers, to better paying fields. And yet the pressure on teachers to be solely responsible for the education of a child because of the declining family unit increases. There's something wrong with that.
