Teaching is one of the noblest professions/careers."?

A 'profession' means a calling requiring specialized knowledge and extensive educational and academic preparation.  Teaching certainly qualifies as a profession, as does doctor, lawyer, accountant, etc.  \n\nA 'career' on the other hand is your life long pursuit, so you make a career out of your profession.  That may be the easiest way to differentiate the two.\n\nIn your sentence, I'd use profession.

Teaching is an art, not a science.  It requires knowledge, but more than that, it requires caring whether your students understand or not.  It requires caring whether they learn the things that are important to them, and not just the things you think they need, or that the school board or the teacher's union tells you to teach.  It takes, in short, loving your students and loving to teach.\n\nThe worst thing that happened to education in this country is the teacher's union, that pretends teachers are all essentially the same, with seniority being the only important variable, just like factory workers.  Students are not products of factories, God help us!

Biomed or Pharmacology pay well and can be rewarding (searching for cures, developing drug plans). Teaching can also be rewarding in it's own right, but if you want money more then other things, Biomed is probably the way to go.

Teachers fill a very necessary role in society.  Take away the teachers and nobody would be able to "do".

I have reared my children to be compassionate people, but to stand on their own feet and to have tremendous integrity.  I have devoted a substantial part of my law practice to working on pro bono matters for indigent clients. Finally, I mentor inner-city high school students, diverse college students, and others.  On my best days, I get to do some of all of that.

I am still in school! What is that shit! Anyway, there are nice teachers who do their job well and try not to show favoritism, just as there are teachers who do not. High school teachers are generally not as open as Middle school teachers.

Yes.\n\n- You have to get a degree (and in some instances a masters).\n- You have to be licenced.\n- You have to attend seminars and courses (which surprisingly are referred to as professional development).\n- Paid a salary, not hourly (hence no overtime).\n- Lastly, like any skilled job, the longer you do it the better you become and the more you can see how others would struggle were they to fill your shoes for a day.\n\nWhat does it matter what others think - I'm ignorant at times too. Regardless of how worldly our experiences they are still finite, so we have altered perspectives. Also, teaching has the distintion of requiring personal character (or what others state as being a calling) - for you can be smart/knowledgeable and still be a poor teacher. So it is a profession that involves a basis of knowledge being built on those receptive to assisting, caring and taking an interest in others.

Thinking of all my teachers past and present ... the difference between a good teacher and a great teacher is passion for the subject of the course combined with passion for teaching.

Education encompasses teaching and learning specific skills, and also something less tangible but more profound: the imparting of knowledge, good judgment and wisdom. Education has as one of its fundamental goals the imparting of culture from generation to generation

A balance of both. Teachers are there for a reason, as well as peers.
