I Teach Biology and Physics
I have three main days at work. On A days I facilitate two Physics classes and one Biology Class. I also have a planning period. On B days I just facilitate Biology classes and have a planning period. On C days I have all of my classes. The day starts with the Pledge of Allegiance and that is the only thing that is same from day to day. Each class is its own adventure, planned and thought out, but never the same because the students ask the questions, do the work and discuss the topic.
Here's the first step for college students
Do as many observations of other teachers as possible and be invested in your student teaching assignment. Getting a good recommendation from that situation can be golden in getting your first teaching gig.
"Having started Teaching later in life, I heard is that really what you want to do at your age?"
