I create lessons for students to help them understand concepts in literature and to become better writers.
A typical day includes greeting students, providing work for them so that they can be successful and learn. Some days I need to work with certain students a little more to support them. I also attend meetings to discuss goals and planning. From time to time I reach out to parents to share good news about their child or to discuss ways to help their child grow.

The steps to becoming a teacher are pretty linear. You have to take classes, student teach, and find a job. It might be a good idea to start as a TA or spend time volunteering with kids to see if it is a right fit.
