| That's easy. I would be in school.
To be more specific, I would be learning, and I would be teaching others to love learning as much as I do.  Thank you, Steve. |
In the fall, I'm going to start classes so I can start working on alternative teaching certification in high school English. I would like to tutor and teach. I think I would eventually like to become a professor. Due to my financial situation, it's going to take a roundabout path to make it there.
My question is, how can I be sure if teaching English literature is the best medium for teaching others to love learning? English is what I majored in at college, and I have great skills in using language. However, I'm just not sure if English is the best way to do this, but I'm drawing a blank about what else to do. What medium or subject is best to express my love of learning? If it
is English, then how can I use English to inspire people to learn at just about any subject they love?
