When did this career start? Teaching started as early as the time when Jesus Christ came to this earth to teach good news to the people. He bacame the Earth's Greatest Teacher. During His times, there was no formal education, it means teaching tool place anywhere as long as there is a comfortable shade from the sun of the sun. Sometimes behind huge trees and stones.
Parents also are considered as informal educators because they do teach their kids at home with good manners and characters to prepare them for the formal education in schools.
Later, teachers are becoming more and more in number. And formal education in schools are then in rampant. Formal education then becomes a must to everybody around the globe.
In some countries, teaching is a "well respected profession". But in others, it is considered as one of the poorest, considering medical professions, engineering and business are those the one on top. In this places, people in the "higher rank" shall we say, look down on to "teachers" because they are "only teachers".
But the truth nowadays is revealed. According to statistics, many medical professionals including nurses, PT's, pharmacists and physicians are now teaching. More of those in the field of business are now teaching too. It is obvious that they need to take education units for them to be a qualified teacher. The demand for teachers all around the world is growing, and this is why teaching is now considered as the "TOP PROFESSION".
