  • Teaching

7
Why do it?
  • Because you can?
  • Because you want to?
  • Because theres nothing else to do?
  • Because its fun?

8
What you wont get out of Teaching
  • Its not the pay
  • Its not the working hours
  • Its not (and shouldnt be) an ego-trip
  • Its not the perks

9
What you will get out of teaching
  • Achievement
  • Making a difference
  • Personal growth

10
You work with people
  • not projects
  • not committees
  • not policies
  • not contracts
  • but real people

11
Your work has meaning
  • Of course, all work has meaning
  • What teaching offers is the opportunity to make a
    difference
  • This is especially true if you end the lower
    rungs of society
  • but it is true no matter what level of teaching
    you undertake

12
You learn as much about yourself as you teach
  • Good teachers are constant learners
  • Good teachers will discover things about
    themselves, adapt, grow
  • Teaching is as much about self-discovery as
    helping others discover themselves
  • The economy favours learners.
