Doesn't this remind you of Isaac Asimov's The fun they had and its key sentence "(...) and the teachers were people."?

Being a teacher...

Despite all difficulties that this job brings with it...it's still my dream job! I am not stuck inside an impersonal office all day, I may even take my lessons outside (if I wish), I have the opportunity to relate to children and teenagers in a variety of ways, learning from them whilst also teaching them, there is never a "sameness" in my job from day to day, but endless variety!
Moreover, I have also the opportunity to constantly learn and research and better my own skills and knowledge. I wouldn't miss all this for any other job in the world!
