It's not too stressful but the pay was bullshit before I left Bayelsa in 2006. Both govt and the school wasn't ready to take care of us but we used the ever available students kpekus to compensate our dear lives... grin grin grin tongue

Guess what OP?! Teaching is one of the most exciting job out there..It's so much fun. I taught Geography at a secondary school months back..The problem is that if you look or you are young, they easily forget you are their teacher and will be very stubborn... That's why I quit my job..Am 19, though I look tall and have a beard so you will think am in my mid 20s

And be VERY careful with the female students, they develop this syndrome of hitting on their teachers especially if you are good looking.. Imagine some of my students visiting my home after school!!

You'll handle 3 subjects and other school activities. The pay isn't impressive but you can stay if you intend to start your own school later.

Teaching is interesting but I will advise that you gather enough experience and start applying to bigger schools with better pay

I recently applied for a teaching job recently within my local government and they promised to get back to me. It's a secondary school and I would be teaching biology and a yet to be known subject. Pay is 25k per month.

I just wanna know what teaching job is like as this would be my first time teaching.
are u a professional teacher? If not, proceed for NCE or B.end.

You need to be good at expressing yourself a.k.a very articulate

Learn the art of storytelling, you'll need it alot to drive home your points and to keep the class interested in your lectures

Teaching is fun but the pay isn't

Lastly, do your best and leave the rest, children of this generation don't want to learn anyways, they are only interested in relationships angry
. S only interested in relationships? Dis one hit me oo

Well, teaching is fun because you will never get bore. Always around staffs and students. It can be stressful at same time if you don't manage your relationship with your students, co-worker, your employer and your meagre pay. Just try your best to manage the aforementioned

Well today was my first day as a teacher. Mehn those student were bored as hell. It's like their attention doesn't cross 5 mins. The lesson note the school required me to make is like I am back to high institution.

This is my dream. I have read numerous books for this. Marilee Adams( teaching that saves live still stuck with me) . Well for the girls I have nothing to do with them other than teach them. My problem now is one of my subject is only for just one student and she is a female.

1. It is going to be boring unless you are one of "born to teach". 2. Engage yourself in private teaching like jamb tutorial. 3. If you don't have passion for a subject, don't accept it.

If u have no passion for teaching,forget about it.
Most students don't take lectures seriously because of miracle centers.
And then be ready to battle with enforcing discipline and class control which some spoilt students will hate u for.
The pay is a peanut.Just add side hustle creatively.
If u teach ur students well and they excel in the future,some if them will really appreciate u.By then,u won't know them,but they will know you.
Step into the bank where ur on time student is working,and u are treated in a special way.Meet one in a bus,ur fare is paid.Only if u will really teach and groom them like ur own kids.

Teaching is very stressful in Nigeria especially private schools engaging students in different subjects with meagre salary. Teachers are not value in Nigeria...

Let's sensitize youths to stop applying for teaching jobs,

The proprietor racks in millions with the help of the teacher and pays them peanuts...

If you don't have a passion in teaching, please don't even start, because the students are the ones who would suffer for it.
