Why do people want to teach?

People choose to teach for a number of different reasons. Some teachers want to teach because it makes them happy to see others learn from them. Some teachers want to teach because they want to help children the way that previous teachers have helped them. Some teachers want to teach because they enjoy being with children and watching them grow. And some teachers want to teach because the science of different learning theories and psychcology intrigues them. But at the end of the day, every teacher has chosen to teach because of  their own personal experiences and/or realizations. Whatever their reason are, teachers have to have a passion for children and they need to have the want and  the desire to teach. If a person's main goal is to make money and have a high salary then this is not the correct field for them. Teachers have a strong desire to give back to their communities, and they want to help future generations by producing bright, healthy, successful leaders.
