Kindergarten Teacher

So much of what you learn in kindergarten sticks with you for the rest of your life. From Robert Fulghum's "All I really need to know I learned in kindergarten," Fulghum discusses how the things you learn in kindergarten help you through out your life. He says "that no matter how old you are, when you go out in the world, it is best to hold hands and stick together."

As a Kindergarten teacher, you impact a child's life. You teach children to share, to take turns, to wait in line, and to work together. These simple rules help you shape your character. Kindergarten teachers help students learn the alphabet, learn how to begin to read and teach other important fundamentals that are the foundation for an education.

To become a Kindergarten teacher, you need a four year college degree in education, certification in the field and a love for children. The average starting salary is $33,000. The job outlook is good, as there are a lot of teachers reaching the retirement age. For more information, visit the Career Center.
