One of the best ways to gain experience in the field is to work as a student teacher, which is a requirement for all education majors.
Many consider the desire to teach a calling. This calling is based on a love of learning. Teachers of young children and young adults must respect their students as individuals, with personalities, strengths, and weaknesses of their own. They must also be patient and self-disciplined to manage a large group independently. Because they work with students who are at very impressionable ages, they should serve as good role models. Elementary and secondary teachers should also be well organized, as they have to keep track of the work and progress of a number of different students. In addition, they should be creative, have artistic ability, and have a strong love of art and teaching others about the field.
