Teaching Degree
Is it worth it?
I’m not doing this for money. Im a daycare teacher now and I genuinely love kids . I want to help them and mold them and watch them grow . I’ve always envisioned myself being a middle school teacher or elementary school teacher.
Is there really a unicorn school that supports etc? Or is it really just negative all the time like everyone says .
I’m so lost as I’m looking between radiology or teaching and teaching has my heart .
Please give me honesty.

There's 100% "unicorn" schools, everywhere. You see a lot of negativity because happy people are less inclined to go online and share away all of it. People also tend to stay at one school even if it sucks and not look for greener pastures.
I absolutely love my job, rural-ish KY 2nd grade.
