Do you think it is difficult to be a teacher
It takes a lot of commitment to become a teacher. It will require you to dedicate a lot of time to your studies.
You should expect to work around 40 hours per week while pursuing your degree.
Additionally, you need to find a job which suits your schedule. Many students have difficulty finding part-time work that allows them to balance schoolwork and their personal lives.
Once you land a full-time position, you will likely be responsible for teaching classes during the day. You may also need to travel between schools each week.
Should I choose to specialize in a single subject or branch out into other areas?
Many students choose to specialize in one subject (e.g., English, History, Math) instead of branching into multiple subjects. It's not necessary to be a specialist. For example, if you're considering becoming a physician, you could choose to specialize in either internal medicine or surgery. You can also become a general practice physician, with a focus in family medicine, neurology, psychiatry or gerontology. A business career could include sales, finance and marketing. The decision is up to you.
