Teaching
My career of choice was teaching and I picked kindergarten. I have a love for smaller kids and enjoy teaching them new things. One pro would be watching them grow and learn and to see the excitement they have when they complete and accomplish a complicated task. Another thing that I felt was great about this career was that you can use your own creativity to teach different things so if they are not getting the concept one way I can change it up and help them better understand it in a fun way or a more structured way depending on the student and which way helps them.

Another con would be the pay, one it is not very high and in Columbia county, the teachers get paid at the end of each month so budgeting would be difficult as well.

I would hope to reach a good medium if not the highest. Between the years of 2014 and 2024, there is a projected job opening of two hundred and eighty jobs in Georgia so I do not feel like I would have a hard time finding somewhere to teach, but we all have our preferred schools and it may be harder to get in depending the county. But with my degree, I feel like I will easily be able to get into a decent
